It's so worth roasting a whole chicken for this next-level chicken-and-rice soup, Plus, you'll never just squeeze a lemon again when you taste the levels of flavor roasted lemon slices bring to the dish. If you plan to make the Escarole Salad with Roast Lemon Chicken, Lardons, and Poached Eggs another day, then reserve two tablespoons of the pan juices for the vinaigrette.

[email protected]I'm not a fan of rice in soup, so I omitted it from this recipe. The soup was still very good, but I think it would have been even better with rice.
