This Mom's Hearty Chicken and Rice Soup recipe contains long-grain white rice, chicken breast halves, chicken legs with thighs, carrots, onion and more.
Giving the chicken a double coat of flour mixture creates a golden crust (without the skin) when pan-fried. We use lemon rind instead of the lemon extract called for in the original.
