How to Make Avgolemono Soup

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the canned chicken noodle soup, chicken broth, and lemon juice.
  2. Whisk the eggs and cornstarch together in a small bowl until smooth.
  3. Slowly drizzle a few spoonfuls of the hot soup mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs.
  4. Pour the tempered egg mixture into the saucepan with the remaining soup, whisking continuously.
  5. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the soup slightly thickens (about 2-3 minutes). Do not boil.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in the salt, pepper, and fresh dill.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with extra dill if desired.
