Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 35m

Yield 12 pieces, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 medium artichokes, 8-10 ounces each
1 -2 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1/4 cup dry white wine
3 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Cut each artichoke into quarters lengthwise, dropping them immediately into a bowl of water with the juice of 1 lemon, to avoid discoloring. With a small, sharp knife, scoop out and discard the hairy choke.
  • In a large saute pan, mix the olive oil, vinegar, wine, garlic, parsley, thyme, salt and pepper. Arrange the artichoke quarters in one layer, with one cut side facing down, in the saute pan. Place the pan on a burner and bring the mixture to a boil over high heat for about 30 seconds. Then place the pan in the oven and roast the artichokes, turning once so that the other cut sides face down, until golden brown and barely tender, about 15 minutes total.
  • The artichoke quarters may be prepared to this point several hours ahead and set aside at room temperature.
  • Pick up the artichoke quarters (with tongs, if hot) and allow any excess oil to drip away. Grill the artichokes directly over high heat, turning occasionally, until they are nicely browned, 4-5 minutes.
  • Serve warm.

ITALIAN STUFFED ARTICHOKES



Italian Stuffed Artichokes image

This recipe is a favorite originating from my Mother's large Italian family. It was her job growing up to clean, trim, and stuff the artichokes. My Mom taught me to make these when I was young. Someday when I have a daughter, I will teach her the same. From generation to generation, this recipe is a classic and continues to be a pleaser for all. My husband enjoys this recipe and appreciates the love behind it.

ITALIAN STUFFED ARTICHOKES



Italian Stuffed Artichokes image

"I can remember Mom making this special treat at Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas," writes Emma Magielda from Amsterdam, New York. "We looked forward to it all year!" TIP: For easy eating, Emma suggests pulling leaves from the artichoke one at a time. Draw each through your teeth slowly, scraping and eating only the tender flesh at the base. Continue until you reach the central cone or heart of tender young leaves. Eat this with a fork.
