GREEK AVGOLEMONO SOUP | a lemony chicken and rice soup (in less than 30 minutes!)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 июл 2024
- This Greek Avgolemono soup is always a winner! Shredded chicken, rice, and a few simple vegetables are stirred into a silky smooth lemon-and-egg broth for a cozy balanced meal.
The ingredients are fairly simple, although, I will say I created a small shortcut. Instead of cooking a whole chicken from scratch to create the shredded chicken and broth, I'm using a rotisserie chicken and boxed chicken broth. I'm also using pre-cooked white rice. Hello meal prep!
Is this an authentic avgolemono soup? Technically, no, but it follows the same concept, with very similar results and flavor. You know me - I'm all for simplifying things as much as I can for a seamless (and easy!) cooking experience. Plus my version gets this healthy Mediterranean soup recipe on the table fast for an easy weeknight dinner meal!

We're almost in SOUP season, so I thought I'd get a jumpstart on it with this tasty Greek soup! What soup recipes would you like to see me whip up next?? xo - Lisa
Thank you so much for this reminder! It's been years since I've made avgolemono, and it's perfect timing as we come into soup weather. I have black beans soaking for tomorrow night, planning to add cabbage, onion, and a carrot, with a bit of finely diced Italian herb-baked ham for spice. What would you add to your black beans?
Have you done pho?
I would eat til cool with the lemon and the dill perfect combination
Cabbage soup please, I try to make but never tastes as good as when my gran used to make it lol
I’d love to see lentil soup or chicken and wild rice. I love soup season!
Thanks for this lovely chicken soup recipe. As a fellow Greek I'm happy to see such big cooking channels picking up on our cuisine.
I wanted to point out though that avgolemono is a thickening method that you can use for any type of soup and not a soup of its own. Avgo means egg and lemono comes from..lemon :P A lot of people in Greece cook soups either with or without it depending on their preference, so I thought I'd give you this additional information :)
Thanks so much for that added clarification! I do mention that on the blog post, but probably didn't describe it clearly on the video. I appreciate you letting the community know! 💕🤗
You should make zucchini stuffed with meat and rice with aygolemono sauce, another great greek recipe!
The perfect warm healing soup for winter time .
Love from Greece 😀
It truly is 😊
Augolemono soup is one of our favorite comfort soups.It’s the best dish for when you are sick.🫶🏻👍🏻💖🍲
o
I love your recipes! Great tip about blending cooked rice to thicken soups. You have the best gluten-free ideas. Thank you so much.
Lisa you are the best! As a Greek I salute this recipe of yours! Well done love x
I just made this and it was amazing! I just happened to have leftover rice and a rotisserie chicken I got yesterday! I made this soup many times before but your version was the most flavourful and easy of all, I used carrots on mine and skipped th3 celery since I didn't have any!
OMG! I can't wait to try this! I'm obsessed with Greek Food! 😋
Thank you for another comforting & healthy (and user-friendly!!) recipe, Lisa☺️ More soup recipes are always welcomed.
Love the soup. I spend $7 for a bowl at nick the Greek and it doesn’t even have rice 🍚 only bits or chicken. As soon as I saw it I went to the grocery store to get the ingredients to make it for lunch. Most of all I like your recipes because the ingredients are simple and easy to find.
Exactly what bought me here as well :)
Wow, it looks fantastic! The texture seems incredible! I have to try this! Thanks for sharing it, Lisa!
Hope you love this new recipe 😊
I just randomly found her channel in my recommendation now i'm obsessed with her videos She's so freaking talented.♥️🍡💗💗💕🍨🍨🥰🥰💖🍧🍭💘🥳🎡🎂💞🍓
There aren't any "accidents", only Divine appointments!
I am so looking forward to making this!! Looks so delicious!! Thanks so much for yet another fabulous recipe!!
I love chicken soup and this looks so good, Lisa! Thank you so much for sharing.
I love this soup as I am Greek thanks ❤👍👍🇬🇷🇬🇷
This was literally the best soup I’ve ever made… WOW! My market doesn’t always have rotisserie chickens, but yesterday I was able to buy a fresh one, pulled the meat off and stored it. I made the rice yesterday and made the soup today for the family and OMG!!!!
I love that it looks like it has cream, flour and all kinds of things we don’t want, but it doesn’t and is SO filling, delicious and satisfying. I’ve never used this method of making soup before. Thank you thank you, Ms. Bryan!
I made it! Easy and delicious, thank you! The lemon was delightful. 👍🏽
Been thinking about this soup lately so I’m so glad you released this video!!
Perfect timing! Hope you enjoy 😊
Never heard of this soup, looks delicious! Thanks Lisa! 🍲 🍂
This soup looks absolutely divine! We’re STILL in soup weather in Melbourne and I can’t wait to make this!
Love love love all your recipes and cooking tips! Thank you so much!♥️
Hope you enjoy this new soup recipe!
One of my favorite soups that never gets enough love, thank you for sharing the recipe!
Made this today. Delicious! Took me a little longer than expected, even though I used rotisserie chicken but I’m a slow cooker. Everyone loved it!
With life and busy schedules, I love to see easy quick meal ideas 😋 thanks 🇰🇪
Yay! Lisa is back with another delicious recipe.🥰😍
I love soups and this looks divine. Will definitely give it a try.😊
Greetings from Greece!
We made this recipe last night for dinner. Everyone loved it and it was really easy to make. We diced up a carrot and we added it to the celery. This is a recipe that we will be making again since it was a big hit! The dill added a lovely garnish and flavor. Thanks for sharing this great recipe!
So glad you are covering this recipe!
Can't wait for you to try this!
Thank you Lisa for the awesome soup recipe 😍😋👌
Thank you for sharing this with us and I look forward to making this for my family

My boyfriend and I made this for dinner tonight and it was amazing! Loved how creamy it was :)
Please keep the soups recipes coming. I LOVE soup and cannot wait for cooler temperatures.
That looks amazing! This is on my list to make.
I always appreciate all the videos you post. I have tried some of your recipes and love them. My work schedule is being an early riser. I do make different smoothies for one thing. I'd love to see some recipes that can be made ahead of time for hectic work schedules. Be blessed 🙏

Looks yummy. I can’t wait to try it!
Oh my this looks so so good! Bring on cooler weather!
Looks delicious 😋
My favourite soup!! Even though I make it like my Yiayia would make I loved your take! For an interesting tangy saltiness I add some chopped preserved lemons. Will also def be sending it to my Mum to try - we’re both big fans 😊
Sounds delicious with the preserved lemons in it! But yes, let me know how you like this version when you do make it 😊
I cannot wait to try this one!😊
Thank you for these videos!
Glad you like them! 😊
I love soup 😍This soup looks absolutely divine!😃😃
Thank you so much for posting this recipe. I was going to put the chicken in the freezer and use it for something else because I didn't have confidence in the recipes for Avgolemeno soup until I found yours. I also like that there won't be so many leftovers so that I get sick of eating it. My 2nd favorite soup is Tom Yum soup. I would love a simple recipe for that!
Looks yummy!
What a nice Soup
Omg just made it So simple and totally delicious!!!
Yay! Glad you loved it Greg 😊
You never miss 🤤😍🥰
I made this tonight and it was delicious!!!!! Thank you.
Glad you liked it Susan!!
I'm a Greek and I thank you for sharing with everyone in the world one of my country's traditional dish 😃 eyxaristo / ευχαριστώ 🇬🇷
Of course! I'm a huge fan of all sorts of Mediterranean dishes, so I had to make this one 😉
Definitely want to try this. So easy with a store-bought cooked chicken! I bet the carrots would look so pretty in this soup.
Yep! You could definitely add carrots into this, or even some leafy greens at the end.
This looks so delicious! Would love more casserole recipes for fall, we really enjoy the chicken broccoli mushroom casserole 😋
Will definitely keep that in mind Jenni 😉
You are simply AMAZING 💓
I look up to you, I admire you, you are my role model to follow. Needless to say I am your #1 fan.
Oooooommggg so tasty it looks very healthy, nice videos
Looks delicious! I’ll keep this recipe in mind once our Southern California weather cools down.
Definitely bookmark this one Alan!
Thank you Lisa. Tonight we made the soup and it was delicious and very easy.
So glad you enjoyed this Avgolemono soup Rocio!
Yum!!! Last weekend I was looking for one of these recipes. Will have to make it again using yours!!
Perfect timing! Let me know how you like this version 😉
Oh my goodness , thank you Lisa ❤️
Avgolemono is one of my favorite soups and your's looks delicious. It's going to the top of my soup-to-make list.
Can't wait for you to try this one! 😉
Your shredded chicken has become a staple in my household 😍
I can’t wait to try this!!
Fabulous and Thank you
Hope you enjoy this new recipe!
I am so happy you found out about this delicious Greek recipe and also made a video about it! Well done Lisa! I must say though that the best way of cooking this soup is to boil for several hours the whole chicken - especially the bone parts - so you can get a yummy and nutritious broth, and then put the remaining ingredients ;) Greetings from Greece!
Yes, that's definitely the traditional way to do it! Just made a quick shortcut for those who want to save time in the kitchen 😉 But, thanks for sharing!
Looks amazing 😍
Made this tonight for dinner, added baby spinach and arugula, was sooo good. I also served it with some dill.
I recently made this. I know it back since ...2009, when I got a cooking book from Corfu. And the egg and lemon, it was a change from our Românian mostly tomato bullion we add to broths (chorba).one difference, though, is that I add it after the broth is done, and I removed it from the stove. I enjoy very much your videos!
This could be a very versatile soup!
I could probably add broccoli and other veggies too - I’d probably go overboard and add everything 😅❤🍲
Definitely trying this tomorrow
Hope you enjoy this new recipe Cara!
Me and my sister just made this and omg it tastes so good. Way better than it already looks. Great tutorial
Glad you both enjoyed this soup!
My Mom made this soup and it's SO yummy. I love all the flavors. Thank you for this recipe!
Aw, glad to hear that Steph!
Yum definitely will make this fall.
Excited for you to make this extra cozy soup soon!
I'm from Greece and live in Germany! Sorry vor my Englisch! I Love this sup and my Kids to! We do also karrots!
This looks delishious!
The perfect soup to cozy up with once the weather starts to cool down 😉
This is chicken soup in Greece 🇬🇷
Υπέροχη συνταγή θα την δοκιμάσω !❤️🙏
Oh! I was waiting for this! We have a special place at a Greek restaurant that serves this. I will make it at home. Thank you 🙏
Hope you enjoy this variation in the comfort of your own home Enid!
My favorite soup :)
thanks for sharing
Using this recipe for my next potluck
you guys see my onions on a regular basis and they're always gigantic.
*giggle*
Lisa 🤗 that sounds delicious, especially bcs im a Lemon & Chicken Fan. I got the Ingredients already on my Shopping List 😃. I need to try it very soon 👍 thx for this mouthwatering warm Recipe 😘
Excited for you to try this recipe! 😊
This was so delicious! Will definitely be in regular rotation this fall.
Curious if you have any tips to keep leftovers as “soup-like” as possible? The rice absorbed all the chicken broth, and while it was still delicious, the texture changed into more of a thick porridge.
That looks glorious! 😍
I'm absolutely going to attempt this, with a few slight changes... (Because I know my family 😉)
I'll use my Thermomix to shred a cooked chicken breast... It goes way further that way.
I'll avoid the celery - no one in my house likes it - and I'll use grated carrot instead.
And I'll use instant rice vermicelli noodles instead of the extra rice.
And I'll absolutely add the extra chicken stock!
AND I'll serve it with a side of home made crusty crunchy sourdough garlic bread! 💓
Yum!
Yum!!
Time to go grocery shopping 😍😍
Wonderful I added garlic and fresh parsley herbs
Love this video. You asked about more Greek recipes like something with gyro meat or Italian wedding soup and some casseroles for cold nights or gobi manchurian (dry). How about a poke bowl too.
I will try it soon😊
Hope you enjoy Ewa!!
Lisa Your Greek Avgolemono Soup Looks So Good In This Video
Excited for you to try this one Pam!
It looks yummy 😋 Lisa. I will make it as soon as it is cold here (without celery). Greetings from Spain 🤗
Can't wait for you to try this one!
Hi, Lisa!🥰💕🤗💕
