In a large pot, mix together the chicken broth, fresh lemon juice, shredded carrots, chopped onion, chopped celery, chicken soup base, and a sprinkle of ground white pepper.

Bring this vibrant mixture to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat and let it simmer gently for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and bursting with flavor.

While the soup is simmering, take a small bowl and blend the margarine and flour until you achieve a smooth consistency.

Gradually stir this mixture into the pot, allowing it to simmer for an additional 8 to 10 minutes while stirring frequently to create a creamy texture.
Step 6
In another bowl, beat the egg yolks until they turn a lovely light color.
Step 7
To temper the eggs, slowly whisk in a bit of the hot soup, pouring it in a thin stream while whisking vigorously.
Step 8
Once well combined, add this egg mixture back into the pot in the same gentle manner and heat through, ensuring everything is perfectly blended.
Step 9
Now, itβs time to add the cooked rice and diced chicken to the soup, stirring until everything is warmed through and ready to enjoy.

Serve your steaming bowl of soup, garnished with fresh lemon slices for a zesty finish.
