Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion finely diced
  • 1 celery stalk finely diced
  • 6 cups low-sodium turkey broth
  • 1/2 cup dry long-grain white rice rinsed and drained
  • 1/2 tsp fine salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 3 cups cooked roast turkey skin removed and diced
  • 2 large eggs

  1. Heat oil in 6-quart pot over medium. Soften onion and celery 5 minutes; add broth, rice, salt, and pepper.
  2. Simmer loosely covered 16 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until rice tender.
  3. Add turkey; gently simmer 5 to 7 minutes to 165°F. Reduce to lowest heat.
  4. Whisk eggs, yolk, and lemon juice. Slowly whisk in 1 cup hot broth in thin stream to gradually warm eggs.
