Roast Lemon Chicken and Rice Soup image

It's so worth roasting a whole chicken for this next-level chicken-and-rice soup, Plus, you'll never just squeeze a lemon again when you taste the levels of flavor roasted lemon slices bring to the dish. If you plan to make the Escarole Salad with Roast Lemon Chicken, Lardons, and Poached Eggs another day, then reserve two tablespoons of the pan juices for the vinaigrette.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 3/4 cups water

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out bland and watery. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't have much flavor. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

Just made this soup and it turned out amazing! The flavors are so well-balanced and the lemon really shines through. I added a bit of extra garlic and chili flakes for a bit of a kick. Will definitely be making this again.

This soup is a flavor explosion! The tangy lemon and savory chicken broth create a perfect balance that warms the soul. The rice adds a nice texture and the vegetables add a pop of color and nutrients. This is a definite keeper in my recipe book!
