Greek-Inspired Lemon Chicken Soup

Inspired by the Greek avgolemono soup at Platia Greek Kitchen in Frisco, Texas, Alex Snodgrass, of the Defined Dish, offers this easy recipe for lemon chicken soup that you can recreate at home. While most versions you find in Greek restaurants use a creamy lemon-egg sauce (thus giving the soup its name, avgolemono), Snodgrass uses pearl couscous to provide creaminess. Loaded with lemon, fresh herbs, and hearty chunks of rotisserie chicken, this soup brings plenty of warmth and brightness on a chilly evening.

This lemon chicken soup recipe comes from Snodgrass’ latest cookbook The Comfortable Kitchen, which offers wholesome, home-cooked meals that don’t need specialty ingredients or fancy skills to be delicious.
