Avgolemono Soup
- 4 cups lower sodium chicken broth
- 1/4 cup orzo
- 1 large egg
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 lemon grated for zest, and juiced, plus more for garnish
- kosher salt
- freshly ground pepper
- toast for serving
- Bring broth to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add orzo and boil until al dente, 6 to 8 minutes.
- While orzo cooks, whisk together egg, egg yolks, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a bowl until foamy and pale yellow. When orzo is ready, pour 1/2 cup of hot stock into egg mixture in a slow, steady stream, whisking constantly.
- Lower heat to medium-low and slowly pour egg-soup mixture back into saucepan, whisking constantly.
- Simmer gently, stirring frequently, until this enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve immediately with toast; garnish with lemon zest and black pepper.
