Lemon-Turkey Soup Recipe Created by Ruth Paget

Lemon-Turkey Soup Recipe Created by Ruth Paget

Greek avgolemono lemon chicken soup was the inspiration for this soup, but it morphed into a Chinese egg drop soup in my hands with the addition of cream.  However, it tastes great on a winter day with icy rain coming down.

Serves 4

Ingredients:

-1 tablespoon olive oil
-1 large, peeled, and chopped onion
-1 teaspoon dry garlic
-1 cup cubed previously cooked turkey breast
-1 (32-ounce) container chicken broth
-1/2 cup lemon juice
-32 ounces water
-1 beaten egg
-1 cup cream

Steps:

1-Sauté onions and garlic in olive oil for 5 minutes in a soup pot.

2-Add turkey pieces, chicken broth, lemon juice, and water.

3-Bring to a boil and let boil for 10 minutes.

4-Remove soup from heat and stir in the beaten eggs.

5-Mix in the cream and serve.
