  • 6 cups low sodium vegetable broth
  • 1 cup white long grain rice
  • 3 fresh thyme sprigs
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 2 lemons , juiced (about 1/4-cup juice)
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream or milk
  • salt and fresh ground pepper , to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder , or to taste

  • In a mixing bowl, combine egg yolks and lemon juice; whisk until combined.
