Directions:

Trim the artichokes by cutting off the stem and cutting off the tips of the leaves. *I often cut them in half, lengthwise, and scoop out the choke but you can skip this step.
Rub the lemon over all the cut parts of the artichokes so it does not brown.
Place all 3 of the artichokes upside down in a microwaveable dish with a tight fitting lid. *Try a dinner or salad plate on top of your dish if you do not have a lid that exactly fits.
*I place them upside down so the water is not collected in the artichokes but they can be placed right side up and then squeezed out later.
Add the water and cover.
Cook on high for 11 minutes. Check at about 9 minutes since all ovens are not the same, and pierce the hearts with a fork. If they are soft they are done.
Drain and serve.
