I really really really didn’t intend to have two soup recipes in a row, but that’s just how it turned out! Initially I made this Greek Lemon & Chicken Soup a week or two back as a test recipe, and it was so good that I just couldn’t help but make it again sooner than later. Especially as we’re rolling on into cooler weather and soup season.

For being a soup, this one is on the lighter and brighter side of the spoon with lemon and feta in it. Which can be a good thing as we travel on into winter and start in with those dreaded winter blues. Eh… who am I kidding? We don’t generally have time in winter to get the winter blues here in Texas, but I know there are some of you that do!

This soup is pretty naturally lightened up on it’s own, and just like the one from the other day, this one is a one-pot-wonder. It’s quick and easy to make, meaning it’s great for busy weeknights. And I don’t know about the rest of you, but busy weeknights are the name of the game in my house lately.

As with most Greek inspired things that I love, this soup even comes with some feta in it! Soup AND cheese? I think I’ve died and gone to heaven, y’all. Aside from the lemon and feta, there’s also pearled couscous and plenty of chicken. It’s good stuff, through and through.

The first time I made this soup, we served it with a Greek mezze platter, but this time around it was the lone ranger. I do think that it would also be delicious served with a nice Greek salad on the side for bonus greens!
