Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 2 eggs
- 4 cups seasoned chicken broth
- 1 lemon
Method
PREP
- Poach 1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs in 4 cups seasoned chicken broth to 165F, then shred; keep the broth hot. Whisk 2 eggs with the juice of 1 lemon until frothy.
COOKING
- Temper the eggs by slowly whisking in a ladle of hot broth, then return the mixture to the pot off the boil.
- Stir over low heat until silky and slightly thickened; do not let it boil.
FINISH
- Fold in the chicken and serve at once. Serves 2 — about 2 cups per bowl.
💡 Pro-Tip: Temper the egg-lemon with hot broth a little at a time — add it straight to boiling soup and you get scrambled egg, not a silky avgolemono.
