Lemon Chicken Soup With Spinach and Dill

If you’ve got it, garnish the soup with crumbled feta.
Serves 4
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 1/2 quarts chicken broth
  • 5 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 3 to 4 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 1/2 cup small dried pasta, such as ditalini
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 8 ounces baby spinach
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
  • Salt and ground black pepper
Heat the oil in a soup kettle over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the broth, 3 tablespoons of the lemon juice, and the chicken. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low, and add the pasta. Continue to simmer, partially covered, until tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
