Time 2h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (3 pound) whole chicken
3 quarts water
11 carrots
6 stalks celery
2 onions
½ cup uncooked white rice
6 ounces baby spinach, chopped
½ cup grated Romano cheese
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 (14 ounce) cans chicken broth
4 eggs, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • Cut up chicken into large pieces and place in a large soup pot with the water. Chop 8 carrots, 3 stalks of celery and 1 onion and place them in the pot as well. Bring to a boil, then cover, reduce heat and simmer 45 minutes, until chicken is tender. Remove chicken and reserve stock. When cool enough to handle, bone chicken and cut meat into bite-size pieces.
  • Process reserved stock in a blender or food processor or using an immersion blender and return it to the pot with the chicken meat. Chop the remaining 3 carrots, 3 stalks of celery and 1 onion and stir into the chicken mixture with the rice. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until rice is tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove chicken mixture from heat and stir in spinach, Romano, salt, pepper, lemon juice and oregano. Set aside.
  • In large saucepan, bring chicken broth to a boil. Pour the eggs into the boiling broth, slowly, in a thin stream. Remove the broth from the heat and stir it into the chicken mixture. Serve hot.

This was a delicious and easy dessert to make. I used a combination of heavy cream and half-and-half, and it turned out perfectly creamy and smooth. The chocolate shavings added the perfect touch of richness. I will definitely be making this again!

This was a delicious and refreshing dessert. The combination of sweet and tart was perfect. I used fresh strawberries and blueberries, but I think any type of berry would be good.
