Instructions:
1. In a pot, bring the chicken broth to a simmer over medium heat. Add the chicken breast and cook for about 15-20 minutes until cooked through. Remove the chicken, shred it using two forks, and set aside.
2. In the same pot, add the rice, sweet potato, zucchini, lemon zest, and chicken bouillon cube. Cook for about 15 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and the rice is cooked.
3. Return the shredded chicken back to the pot. Squeeze in the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let it simmer for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
4. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Slowly pour the egg mixture into the soup while stirring continuously to create delicate egg ribbons.
5. Finish the soup by stirring in the butter for richness and extra flavor.
6. Serve the lemon chicken and rice soup hot, garnished with avocado slices and a sprinkle of fresh parsley if desired.
Special Tips or Variations:
- For a heartier version, you can add more vegetables like carrots or spinach.
- Feel free to adjust the lemon juice according to your taste preference for a more or less tangy flavor.
- This soup can be easily doubled or tripled to serve more people, just adjust the ingredients accordingly.
