Very good recipe!! I did make a couple of changes though, I added 2 chicken breasts pre-cooked and 3/4 cup of uncooked rice at the beginning so they would get the flavour cooked threw it. I also added about 1/8 cup less lemon juice. I will be making this again thanks to a wonderful and very easy to follow recipe!

Good and thick and creamy. Serving sizes per the recipe would be pretty small, so if you plan to use it as a main dish, you will want to plan on more.

This turned out way too sour for our tastes, but we tempered it with some heavy whipping cream and it was delicious after that.

Definitely a keeper. It was awesome. It turned out less soupy but not quite stew either. I ladled the cooked rice into th bowl first, as directed. I also didn't think the lemon slices on top was necessary because I wasn't presenting the soup to guest.

It was really good lemony flavor, and I followed other reviews and added only half of the chicken soup base, but it was still waaay too salty! Maybe it was the brand I used versus the one used in the recipe, but watch out for it! If I make this again, I would omit it completely and I think the recipe would be 5 stars

Just as good as when we had this soup in Athens looking at the Parthenon. I use less margarine than required subsitute lemon juice for fresh and use more chicken soup base for the broth.. its fabulous and just like we had in Greece.. company always love it. Thanks for this taste of Athens. Its a complete meal with nothing or serve a salad first and a nice glass of Sauvignon Blanc.

Loved it! We didn't have celery and used leeks instead. I will definitely make this substitution again. I made this last weekend and I think I am going to make it again tonight.

I cut this recipe in half and only made a few changes. I used butter instead of margarine, orzo instead of rice, and turkey instead of chicken. May not be necessary but, I sauted the onion and celery to get rid of the crunch before adding to the soup base. Absolutely loved this recipe. The blending of flavors is perfect. This will be added to my recipe box as a favorite. Thank You!

This was an absolutely yummy soup. A rendition of chicken rice soup, but better. I highly recommend not keeping lemons in for too long, as they make the soup bitter from the rind. I added 1 tsp. of Greek seasoning as others suggested and it gave it a nice kick. Also used instant rice to have it sooner. I will make this again, and again.

Really enjoyed this soup! Even my kids, ages 10 and 12, liked it. I cut the recipe in half thinking 16 serving was going to be too much, but it just made 4 bowls of soup. Next time I won't half it. I scooped the rice in the soup bowls first and then added the soup. I also doubled the veggies and chicken and reduced the yolks to two (I halved the recipe). I also used only half of the amount of chicken soup base (bouillon). Make sure you use low sodium chicken broth. Yummy!

Great recipe! Pita bread for dipping is a good idea and I added a few dashes of cayenne but I'm a little on the spicy side.

AWESOME!!!!!! My husband was very skeptical when I told him what was for supper the night I made this! This was so good!!! It has been added to my recipe box and will be a permanent addition. I thought it had a perfect blend of salt and a great lemon flavor without being overwhelming. Definitely make pita bread to go with it for dipping! If I would change anything, I may add a bit more rice and I might even double the chicken.

This is better than the soup we get at an authentic greek restaurant we go to in a city with a large greek population! My husband absolutely loved it; it was very lemony flavored but we really liked the flavor If you prefer less lemon just add less lemon I did use greek roasted lemon chicken to add to it which itself was delicious too and I added more rice to thicken the soup a bit

This was fabulous...very hearty..I seared chicken tenders and cooked them with the dish deglazeing the pan before adding water for stock...I agree about adding the rice later though..it does tend to get a bit mushy while sitting..I would say cook the rice in a chicken stock for the same flavor..

Excellent fresh taste. Love the lemon. I used homemade turkey broth and turkey (leftover from Thanksgiving). Didn't add the soup base (too many nasty ingredients in those), used orzo instead of rice, added a touch of oregano and lots of fresh spinach. I only used 6 egg yolks and omitted the flour and butter and it was plenty thick and rich enough and much more healthy! Whole family loved it.
