It looks good but in Greece we donโt make it with vegetables added to the soup and we use traditional Greek kritharaki zymarika or orzo instead of rice
Looks absolutely delicious! Will try this for sure!
He's going to "SHtrain" it ladies and gentlemen.
Well so far I only see about three people who have actually made this recipe, including myself. It was about 10F last night outside and breezy here on a small island in Kittery, Maine. We have always made scratch chicken soup, but made this recipe last night EXACTLY as you did and man my wife and I and our friends that visited all agree that this recipe is hands down THE BEST. It paired really nice with a chilled white wine we get from Sharpe Hill Vineyards in CT. Used to get a very similar soup at a Greek place we really liked but never were able to duplicate it. This is the stuff but even better. I think the key is the small dice vegetables and the lemon. The eggs really gave it a nice thick consistency. Thanks loads for sharing!
OMG! I LOVE THIS SOUP!!!! Especially like the addition of leeks…adds so much more flavor. The only thing I do differently is the avgolemono. Thanks for sharing this awesome recipe!
A variation that my Greek mom uses is orzo instead of rice. We often use hilopites, which are small egg noodles, in my parents' villages when making avgolemono, and orzo is a great adaptation we learned in the US. It gives the starchiness of rice, but a bit more bite from the pasta than the mushiness you get from rice. Other small pasta (ditilini, couscous, pastina) would be great too, avgolemono is a lovely rustic dish that lends itself to whatever you have on hand.
Iโm so cold right now but the thought of making this is already warming me up! Iโve been big into soups lately. I love the presentation of your video. I make cooking videos too! ๐งโ๐ณ I love to be inspired and learn from other talented creators like you. ๐๐ปthanks for sharing!
Make this all the time. My family also like pork and celery, pork and leek, pork and greens. Chicken and leeks is good.
Omg, where have I been? I never heard of this but now I need to make it!

Sorry cheff but this nothing but avgolemon soup. It is a vegetable soup with rice lemon and egg. The real avgolemon is what it says Avgo "eggs" lemonon "lemon" with rice and pieces of chicken
Made this for dinner last night. It was a huge hit! My brother in law who lives with us is very picky. We assumed he could figure out dinner for himself with the extra chicken. What a shock. He loved it. I just told him it was a version of chicken soup. If I had said it was Avgolemono soup, he wouldn't have even tried it.
Mr. P this looks delicious I will make it thank you and May God Bless ๐
Canโt wait to try! Love your recipes

Hey ..its better to boil the water first then add the chicken and other ingredients ..you get the most pure broth
New subscriber here. Great content, thank you. I was watching one of your earlier videos and you mentioned your techniques with knives video. I can't seem to find it among your hundreds available LOL.
This looks quite simple and I KNOW I can make this. My favorite soup, too!!
you can use orzu pasta instead of rice if you like.
Nice soup

I love chicken and rice soups. But this recipe is a kick up the alley. A must try during the winter months in Nortern Ontario Canada. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Great Video.
Best Regards.
Thank you so much Chef Billy. I love soup but have never heard of this one. Definitely will be making it. We are in a deep freeze here in Calgary so a hearty bowl of soup is a must. P.S. If anybody else says โitโs a dry coldโ – well, Iโll just leave you with that ๐คฃ๐คฃโ๏ธ
This is my absolute favorite soup. I will definitely make it. Thanks chef.
Itโs great to see your version of Avgolemono. It is one of my winter favs. Add a chicken salad sandwich on toasted cinnamon raisin bread and Life is Good!
Man i really appreciate this channel. My wife is a BIG soup lover and i love making the different soups on your channel for her. Thanks Chef!
I love that you cheer us on to try your recipes. But I really like how you teach how to make the recipes. The step by step and explanation on why or why not is amazing. You make trying this recipe easy to follow, so thank you so much for sharing. ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ also it make me come back for more recipes ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ
What garlic press do you use?
Being Greek this is my comfort food. I make small batches in half hour if I need to but usually make a big pot and it eat it all within 2-3 days. I make roughly 2 gallons with 2 cups of rice, 6 eggs and one cup of lemon. I usually add a couple more lemons after it's done.
I've never heard of this. Looks so good! Thanks Chef
