👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
Place chicken pieces in a large pot, cover with water or broth, add salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 1 hour, or until chicken is cooked through. Skim off any foam that rises to the surface.
⏱️ 1 hour - 2
Remove chicken from the pot and set aside to cool slightly. Strain the broth into a clean pot, discarding solids.

Add diced carrots, parsnip, celery, leek, and potatoes to the strained broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 20-25 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.
⏱️ 25 minutes - 4
While vegetables cook, debone the chicken and cut the meat into bite-sized pieces. Discard skin and bones.

Add the shredded chicken meat and chopped parsley (and lovage, if using) to the soup. Simmer for another 5-10 minutes.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 6
In a small bowl, whisk together egg yolks and sour cream until smooth. Gradually temper the egg mixture by slowly whisking in about 1 cup of hot soup broth. This prevents the eggs from scrambling.
💡 Conseils de pro: Ensure the soup is not boiling when tempering the eggs. - 7
Pour the tempered egg mixture back into the pot of soup, stirring constantly. Add lemon juice and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Heat gently for a few more minutes, but do not boil.
💡 Conseils de pro: The soup should thicken slightly and become creamy.
💡 Conseils de pro
- ✓Lovage is a traditional herb that adds a unique, slightly celery-like flavor. If unavailable, a bit more parsley can be used, but the flavor will be different.
- ✓For a richer broth, you can use a combination of water and good quality chicken broth.
- ✓Ensure the soup is not boiling when you add the egg yolk and sour cream mixture to prevent curdling.
