Artichokes' delicate flavor is accentuated by robust, salty prosciutto. Bake them in a white-wine bath and they'll be tender and aromatic.

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup dry white wine
Coarse salt and ground pepper
6 slices white sandwich bread
4 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto, coarsely chopped (1 cup)
2 scallions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 garlic clove, coarsely chopped
4 medium artichokes (about 12 ounces each), prepared
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Pour wine and 1 cup water in bottom of a shallow 2-quart baking dish; season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a food processor, combine bread, prosciutto, scallions, oil, and garlic; pulse until coarse crumbs form. Season stuffing with salt and pepper.
  • Gently spread outer leaves of artichokes to create room for stuffing. Fill cavity and spaces between outer leaves with breadcrumb mixture; place upright in prepared baking dish.
  • Cover dish tightly with aluminum foil. Bake until the base of an artichoke is easily pierced with the tip of a paring knife, 60 to 75 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.
