Steps:
- Thinly chop and sauté the onion in the vegetable oil. Add a bit of water if necessary to prevent burning.
- Mince garlic and add to the sautéed onions along with the rice. Fry mixture for a couple of minutes to ensure that the rice won't get mushy later.
- Drain spinach and pour the reserved liquid in the pot. Run your knife through the drained spinach chopping the longer stems.
- Add chicken cubes, white pepper, paprika and lemon juice and water.
- Cook for 20 min on medium high heat or until the rice is tender.
- The soup will have a thicker consistency. You can add more water or chicken stock to adjust the thickness to your preferences.
