Matzo Ball Soup
- 7 cups fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth, divided
- 1 1/2 cups unsalted matzo meal
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh onion
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
- 2 large egg yolks
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 4 cups chopped onion
- 4 cups water
- 1 1/2 cups chopped carrot
- 1 1/2 cups chopped celery
- 10 garlic cloves, crushed
- 8 thyme sprigs
- 8 parsley sprigs
- 4 chicken thighs, skinned (about 1 1/3 pounds)
- 4 chicken drumsticks, skinned (about 1 1/3 pounds)
- Cooking spray
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
- Combine 1 3/4 cups chicken broth, matzo meal, 2 tablespoons minced onion, oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, yolks, and 1 minced garlic clove, stirring well. Cover and chill 1 hour.
- While matzo mixture chills, combine 5 1/4 cups broth, 1/4 teaspoon salt, chopped onion, and next 8 ingredients (chopped onion through drumsticks); bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 1 hour, skimming surface as needed. Remove chicken; reserve for another use. Strain broth mixture through a colander into a large bowl; discard solids. Return broth to pan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer.
- Lightly coat hands with cooking spray. Divide matzo mixture evenly into 24 (1 1/2-inch) balls. Gently drop balls into simmering broth. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook 5 minutes or until done (matzo balls will rise to surface). Remove from heat; stir in dill.
