Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 2/3 cup chicken broth (preferably homemade)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • Salt
  • Pepper
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: In a small saucepan, bring broth to a boil.

  • Step 2: In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, then add the lemon juice and whisk until frothy.

  • Step 3: While continuing to whisk, pour half the boiling broth into the eggs in a small stream, whisking vigorously and continually so that the eggs don't cook.

  • Step 4: Return the broth to the flame and pour the tempered eggs into the remaining broth, whisking the whole time. Cook until the sauce thickens slightly, but NEVER LET THE SAUCE BOIL. This will take about five minutes.

  • Step 5: Serve immediately. This sauce doesn't reheat well.
