To prepare a delicious chicken soup, it is essential to start with fresh, quality ingredients. The first step is to wash the chicken breast well under a stream of cold water to remove any impurities. Then, prepare a large pot of water on the heat, and when the water boils, add the chicken breast. Let it boil for about 10 minutes, enough for it to cook evenly. If you prefer, you can cut the chicken breast into cubes before boiling it; this will help it cook faster and more evenly.
Once the chicken breast is ready, transfer the pieces of meat to another clean pot, where you will prepare the soup. Now, it’s time to deal with the vegetables. Carefully peel the carrot, parsley, and onion, then wash them well. Cut the vegetables into small pieces so they soften faster and release their flavors into the soup. If you prefer a finer texture, you can chop the onion finely, but if you like to feel larger pieces, you can leave it whole.
Check the chicken breast, and when it is fully cooked, add the rice and salt to taste in the soup pot. Let everything boil for about 20 minutes, until the rice becomes soft and well-cooked. During this time, you can prepare your taste buds, as the aroma of the soup will begin to fill the kitchen. When the boiling time is up, turn off the heat and taste the soup, adjusting the salt to your preferences. Now add the freshly chopped parsley, which will bring an extra freshness and color to the soup.
Let the pot sit covered for 15 minutes, so the flavors can meld. In a smaller bowl, mix the egg yolks with the juice from half a suitable lemon and the sour cream. Carefully add four ladles of the hot soup, stirring constantly to avoid the eggs coagulating. Then, pour the mixture into the pot with the soup, stirring again carefully to achieve a creamy consistency.
Finally, sprinkle a little more parsley on top for an attractive look. The chicken soup is ready to be served, and its aroma will delight your senses. Enjoy your meal!
