Lemony Greek Chicken Soup

• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 cup finely diced onion
• Sea salt
• 1/2 cup peeled and finely diced carrot
• 1/2 cup finely diced celery or fennel
• 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
• 6 cups Chicken Magic Mineral Broth (page 55) or store-bought organic chicken stock
• 1/2 cup Simple Tuscan Farro, (page 148)
• 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons lemon zest
• 3 egg yolks
• 1/4 cup fresh mint, finely chopped
• 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
• Pinch of freshly ground pepper
• 1 cup thinly sliced cooked organic chicken breast meat

1. Heat the olive oil in a soup pot over medium heat, then add the onion and a pinch of salt and saute until translucent, about 4 minutes.
2. Stir in the carrot, celery, oregano, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and saute for about 30 seconds.
3. Pour in 1/2 cup of the broth to deglaze the pot and cook until the liquid is reduced by half.
4. Add the remaining 5 1/2 cups broth and the farro and bring to a boil, then lower the heat to maintain a simmer.
5. Whisk the lemon juice, lemon zest, and egg yolks together, then stir the mixture into the simmering soup and cook until it clouds and thickens a bit, about 3 minutes.
6. Stir in the mint, parsley, pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt, then add the chicken and do a FASS check.
7. If the soup tastes too sour, add a pinch of salt.
8. You can substitute 1/2 cup of cooked orzo or cooked brown rice for the farro.
9. To make a vegetarian version, omit the chicken and use Magic Mineral Broth (page 54).
10. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
