  • Avgolemono is a Greek word that translates literally to egg-lemon and is actually both a soup and a sauce. The dish most familiar to North Americans is a simple, comforting, and nourishing soup traditionally made from chicken broth, rice, lemon juice, and eggs. Nicole shows you how to make her version of this Greek classic with added chicken, onion, and garlic, topped with fresh dill and parsley, and served with crusty bread.

    I went low carb, and this works beautifully, thank you! I found adding a "riced" cauliflower as a stand in for the rice worked perfectly. ❤️

    Hi, new sub here.
    An Observation: I absolutely love Avgo Lemono soup, have for over 50 years.
    Over the years, I have researched quite a number of recipes for this soup, and found ALL of them waay tooo laborious to even attempt the recipie, unless, perhaps, you are snowed in by 12 feet of snow and have all the ingredients.
    Your recipie is Great, Realistic and sure to yield the
    Real Deal.
    Thanks!
    You're talented, for sure.

    As a greek from cyprus thanks for this. I think a key point that should be highlighted is you have to be careful when doing the eggs so they dont curdle as that would ruin the augolemoni. But yeah this how i do it very similar. Great job

    This is a staple in our house, its the hubs favorite, I also add a couple carrots, celery (and onion) when I am boiling the chicken and then when I start putting soup together I add grated raw potato with the rice and I mush up the carrots, celery and onion and add that in too .. I used to do it traditional without the veggies but the veggies take it up to a completely new level ..

    Avgolemono is actually the egg and lemon mixture. Not the soup.
    The soup is called kotosoupa which means chicken soup.
    We use avgolemono in other soups like psarosoupa (fish soup) and vrasto (patatos carrots and beef soup) and other recipies like laxanontolmades (cabbage stuffed with meat and rice)

      Hi, Monica.
      I love Greece, been Five times.
      Thanks for your comment, it cleared something up for me.
      At my favorite Greek restaurant, I get waited on by a pleasant Greek woman who is middle-aged.
      I Always order Avgolemono soup, and when I do, she answers "Chicken soup."
      Now, Thanks to you, I know why.
      Stay Well. Long Live Greece....

    Love your videos and easy to follow recipes. I can never make scalloped potatoes or potatoes o’gratin. Mine never turns out right, either too dry or too greasy runny. Not good. My son keeps requesting I make this dish but I got nothing! Please show me how to make it delicious! Also, I had a favorite restaurant in New Orleans that is now gone, that used to make the best shrimp o’gratin. Please attempt this too. And they used a white cheese in the sauce! Yummy!
