Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound baby artichokes
1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, boiled for 20 minutes in salted water, strained, and cooled
1/2 cup olive oil
4 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons sliced garlic
2 cups chicken stock
4 tablespoons chopped parsley
Salt and pepper

Steps:

Trim the top 1-inch off of the artichokes and peel the outer leaves off to the tender light green ones. Quarter each artichoke into wedges. If not cooking immediately, place in lemon water to prevent browning. Cut potatoes into four wedges.
In a large skillet, on medium-high heat, saute the potatoes and artichokes in oil and butter for 5 minutes so the potatoes just start to brown. Add garlic and saute until garlic just starts to brown. Add chicken stock. Turn down heat and continue cooking for 15 minutes. Chicken stock should reduce down to a 1/2 cup. Season with salt, pepper, and parsley.

1/3 cup dry white wine
6 whole black peppercorns
6 coriander seeds
2 fresh thyme sprigs or 1/2 teaspoon dried

DRESSING
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

Steps:

FOR SALAD:
Cook potatoes in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, about 22 minutes. Drain well. Cool. Cut into 1-inch pieces.
Halfway fill large bowl with cold water. Squeeze in juice from half of lemon. Cut second lemon half in half. Cut off stem from 1 artichoke and rub exposed area with cut side of lemon piece. Starting from base of artichoke, bend each leaf back and snap off where leaf breaks naturally. Continue until light green leaves are exposed. Cut off top 2 inches of artichoke above heart. Using small sharp knife, cut off all dark green areas. Cut artichoke heart into quarters. Rub all cut surfaces with lemon piece. Cut out choke and pink inner leaves from each section and discard. Place artichoke heart sections in water with lemon juice. Repeat with remaining artichokes.
Combine 1 2/3 cups water, olive oil, wine, peppercorns, coriander and thyme in heavy large saucepan and bring to boil. Drain artichokes. Add to saucepan. Cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain. Cool. Cut into slices. (Potatoes and artichokes can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately and refrigerate.)
Mix potatoes, artichoke slices, red onion, green onions, tomato, olives and basil in large bowl.
FOR DRESSING:
Mix lemon juice and mustard in medium bowl. Gradually whisk in olive oil. Mix into salad. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
