Chicken Lemon Rice Soup

1. 1

   In a small sauce pan, cook rice until just done, and set aside.

2. 2

   In a soup pot, saute onion and fennel in a bit of olive oil until just translucent. Add stock, bring to boil and reduce to simmer. Add half of the dill.

3. 3

   If using fresh chicken breasts, add them to the simmering broth and let them cook at a VERY gentle simmer until very tender, about 35 minutes. Use two forks to shred the chicken in the broth.

4. 4

   If you are using leftover chicken, let it simmer in the stock for about 20 minutes until the chicken is warm and tender and the flavor of the dill has infused the broth.

5. 5

   Stir in the rice, the lemon juice and the rest of the dill. Add salt and pepper to taste.

6. 6

   Let everything simmer together for another 5 minutes and serve.
