Avgolemono Soup

Avgolemono is a rich, silky, and comforting Greek soup made with chicken broth and Arborio rice, enriched with beaten eggs and lemon juice, that's amazingly delicious! I've made this epic Greek soup many times but this recipe is made from scratch with a whole chicken and homemade broth. Garnish with parsley and lemon zest.
