Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Egg Yolks: Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Gently lower 8 eggs into the boiling water and let them boil for 1 minute. Remove the pot from the heat, cover, and let the eggs sit for 15 minutes. (Total time: 16 minutes).

02

Step

Cool and Chop Eggs: Transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool completely. Peel the eggs, discard (or save for another use) the egg whites, and finely chop the yolks. (Total time: 5 minutes)

03

Step

Prepare the Chicken Dumplings: In a medium bowl, combine the ground chicken, beaten egg, matzo meal, salt, pepper, and cinnamon. Mix gently until just combined. Form the mixture into walnut-sized balls. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to help them firm up. (Total time: 20 minutes)

04

Step

Simmer the Soup: In a large saucepan or Dutch oven over high heat, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Add the rice and the chicken meatballs. Once the soup returns to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the chicken meatballs are cooked through. (Total time: 20 minutes)

05

Step

Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish generously with the chopped hard-boiled egg yolks. Serve immediately and enjoy!

For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth. You can also add finely chopped vegetables like carrots, celery, or parsnips to the soup for added nutrition and flavor.
The chicken meatballs can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before cooking.
If you don't have matzo meal, you can substitute it with finely ground matzo crackers.
