Yield Makes 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lemons
1 1/2 pounds baby artichokes
1 clove garlic, cut in half
2 tablespoons whole black peppercorns
2 tablespoons coarse salt
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 small bunch fresh thyme
Pinch of freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Fill a large bowl with cold water; juice 2 lemons into water. Set aside. Trim spiky tops, tough stems, and outer leaves from artichokes; halve lengthwise. Scrape any pink choke out from the center, leaving artichoke half intact. Transfer cut artichokes to acidulated water immediately.
  • Drain artichokes. Fill a large saucepan with water. Add artichokes, garlic halves, peppercorns, 1 1/2 tablespoons salt, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and thyme to saucepan. Set over high heat; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, using a few layers of cheesecloth or a plate to keep artichokes submerged, until tender when pierced with a sharp knife, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat, and drain. Reserve artichoke halves, some of the garlic, and a few sprigs of thyme. Place in a bowl, and drizzle with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and pinch of pepper.

EASY MARINATED ARTICHOKES

Store-bought marinated artichokes are too expensive and are consumed faster than the time it takes to open the jar. I created this recipe with simple ingredients that are already found in the kitchen. It's delicious by itself, but feel free to experiment and even make your own artichoke salad. It's not like the real deal...it's better! Enjoy immediately or chill the marinated artichokes for at least an hour before serving.
