Kittencal'S Lemon Chicken Orzo Soup - cooking recipe

Ingredients

8 cups chicken broth
3/4 cup uncooked orzo pasta (or use same amount uncooked rice)
salt
black pepper
2 large eggs
1 lemon, juice of
grated parmesan cheese (optional I like to sprinkle it on top!)

Preparation

Bring the chicken broth to a boil in a pot.
Add in the orzo or rice; simmer uncovered until the orzo or rice is cooked (about 10 minutes).
In a medium heat-proof bowl whisk together eggs and lemon juice until frothy.
Remove a ladle of hot broth from the pot and slowly add the broth to the egg mixture whisking vigorously; pour the mixture back into the hot soup.
Remove immediately from the heat (DO NOT LET BOIL!).
Ladle into bowls and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
