How to Make Nourishing Greek Healing Soup
  1. Prepare the Chicken: Cook raw chicken until no longer pink; shred or chop it. Use pre-cooked rotisserie chicken for speed.
  2. Simmer the Broth: Combine chicken broth in a large pot and heat until simmering.
  3. Cook the Orzo: Add orzo to the simmering broth and cook for about 10 minutes until tender.
  4. Whisk the Eggs: Whisk eggs in a bowl, temper with hot broth slowly to prevent curdling.
  5. Combine the Mixtures: Stir the tempered egg mixture back into the soup without boiling.
