Creamy Chicken Lemon Rice Soup
  1. Prepare the rice: Rinse the rice 2 times. Soak it in hot water for 10–15 minutes, then set aside.

  2. Cook the chicken: In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chicken breast and onions. Cook, stirring, until chicken is no longer pink.

  3. Add vegetables: Stir in celery and carrots. Cook on medium-high for 2–3 minutes, stirring so they don’t stick.

  4. Build the soup base: Add soaked rice, bouillon cubes, oregano, seasoning salt, salt, and pepper. Pour in 6–8 cups of water and stir well. Simmer on medium heat for about 30 minutes, or until rice is very tender and almost dissolved into the broth.

  5. Finish the soup: Lower the heat to low. Stir in fresh lemon juice and heavy cream. Let the soup cook gently for another 10–15 minutes.

  6. Serve: Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Serve hot with bread or a light salad.
