HEALTHY STRACCIATELLA WITH SPINACH image

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 quarts chicken or turkey stock
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 large or extra large eggs
1 1/2 tablespoons semolina
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan (1 1/2 ounces)
1 6-ounce bag baby spinach, or 1 bunch spinach, stemmed, washed, dried and coarsely chopped

Steps:

1. Place the stock in a large saucepan or soup pot. Remove 1/3 cup and set aside. Bring the rest to a simmer. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper. If there is any visible fat, skim it away. 2. Beat the eggs in a bowl, and stir in the 1/3 cup of stock, the semolina and the cheese. 3. Stir the spinach into the simmering stock, then drizzle in the egg mixture, scraping all of it in with a rubber spatula. Stir very slowly with the spatula, paddling it back and forth until the little "rags" form. Taste, adjust seasoning and serve at once.
