Ingredients
  

  • 1 rotisserie chicken Rotisserie chicken (Costco works great!)
  • 96 oz. Chicken broth
  • 6 ears Sweet white corn
  • 1 large Onion
  • 3 stalks Celery
  • 2 eggs Eggs (for boiling)
  • Salt and pepper as needed
  • Fresh parsley for garnish
  • 1 egg Egg (for rivels)
  • 1/2 cup All-purpose flour
  • Milk a dash, if needed

Instructions
 

  • Finely chop the onion and celery and place them in a large stockpot.
  • Pour in the chicken broth and heat the pot over medium heat.
  • Shred the rotisserie chicken into bite-sized pieces and add to the pot.
  • Slice the corn kernels off the cob and stir them into the soup mixture.
  • Bring the soup to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.
  • In a separate small pan, cover two eggs with cold water and bring them to a boil. Remove the pan from heat, cover, and let sit for 15 minutes. Drain, cool the eggs in cold water, peel, and chop them into small pieces.
  • To make the rivels, beat one egg in a bowl and mix in the flour until slightly sticky. If too dry, add a splash of milk. Roll the mixture into small pea-sized pieces.
  • Drop the rivels into the boiling soup and cook for about 5 minutes until they float to the surface.
  • Stir in the chopped hard-boiled eggs.
  • Season with salt and pepper to your taste, and sprinkle fresh parsley on top for garnish.
