Number Of Ingredients 12

10 baby artichokes
10-12 mixed mushrooms sliced. (i tend to use white and baby bellas)
1 sweet onion thin sliced
1-3 cloves garlic, minced (to taste)
2-3 heirloom tomatoes chopped. (i use hunts fire roasted in a can if i can't get fresh ripe tomatoes)
To taste fresh basil chiffonade, dried can be used
1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
1/4 c parmigiana
1/4 c manchego cheese (romano can be used - or all parmigiana)
1/8 c panko
1/8 c seasoned bread crumbs
butter or oil for sautéing

Steps:

  • 1. Trim artichokes. Steam until just tender, time depends on sizes. Use a fork to test. Cool to be able to handle. Slice in half. Set aside.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 350. In a large sauté pan, sauté onions in butter for a minute then add garlic and cook until onions are translucent. Add the mushrooms and stir to release liquid in mushrooms. Add the tomatoes and stir in the artichokes. Stir in basil and balsamic vinegar. Pour to a 2 quart casserole.
  • 3. Mix cheeses and bread crumbs together. Sprinkle on top of casserole. Bake 30-45 minutes until desired brown. Serve hot.
