LEMON AND RICE SOUP

We love to eat at a restaurant down in Nashville, Tn. called Demos. There are two in Tn. and they have some of the best food going. There is always a line but if you are ever in that area be sure and stop in.

1 Cup  Long Grain Rice, uncooked

1 1/2 Teaspoons Dried Oregano
Pepper to taste

In a soup kettle combine the first 5 ings. Bring to a boil.
Add the chicken and rice, reduce heat, cover and simmer
For 15 minutes or until rice is tender
