I picked this up off of a card in a grocery store, it looks really good! Ingredients:
3 medium artichokes |
1/2 cup red wine or 1/2 cup italian vinaigrette dressing, divided |
1/2 cup roma tomato, chopped |
1/2 cup green bell pepper, chopped |
1 garlic clove, chopped |
1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning or 1/2 teaspoon dried basil |
assorted lettuce (optional) |
1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese or 1/4 cup asiago cheese |
Directions:
1. Wash artichokes; trim off stem and any small leaves. 2. Cut off one-quarter of the leaf tips. 3. Quarter artichokes; use a spoon to scrape out the fuzzy choke. 4. In a Dutch oven cook artichokes and 2 tablespoons of vinegar, covered, in boiling salted water for 10 minutes or tender and a leaf pulls off easily. 5. Drain; rinse in cold water and drain again. 6. Meanwhile, in a small bowl stir together remaining vinaigrette, tomato, bell pepper, garlic, and Italian seasoning. 7. Arrange artichoke quarters on a serving platter or individual plates lined with lettuce, if desired. 8. Spoon dressing mixture over artichokes. 9. Sprinkle with cheese. |
