     Title: Hank's Avgolemono Soup
Categories: Soups, Poultry, Citrus, Rice, Eggs
     Yield: 7 Servings

     2 tb Olive oil
     1 c  Chopped yellow onion
     5 c  Chicken stock
          +=PLUS=+
     1 c  Water
   1/2 c  Orzo or rice
     1 lb Chicken; 1/4" cubes
          Salt
     3 tb Lemon juice
     3 lg Eggs
          Fresh parsley to garnish

 Heat the olive oil in a medium pot and saute the onions
 over medium-high heat 'til they are soft & translucent,
 4-5 minutes. While the onions are cooking, bring another
 pot of salted water to a boil and add the orzo or rice.

 When the onions are ready, add the chicken stock and
 water and bring to a bare simmer. When the orzo or rice
 is nearly done - firm, but mostly cooked - drain the
 boiling water and add the pasta or rice to the chicken
 broth. Add the diced chicken to the pot. Let this cook
 5-8 minutes, then taste the soup for salt.

 Beat the eggs in a bowl. Whisking constantly, add the
 lemon juice to the eggs. You will need to temper the
 eggs before you add the egg-lemon mixture to the soup.
 It takes both hands to do this. With one hand, whisk the
 egg-lemon mixture vigorously. With the other, slowly
 pour in a ladle's worth of hot broth. Do this at least
 twice, and you can add as many ladle's worth of broth
 as you want to the mixture.

 Turn the heat off the soup. Whisk the soup with one
 hand while you pour the hot egg-lemon mixture in with
 the other. Serve at once, garnished with parsley.

 Yield: Serves 6-8.
