Fixed these as a side the the rachel ray beer burgers, and it was wonderful. Ingredients:
6 fresh artichokes |
2 lemons halved, plus 1/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice |
3 tablespoons freshly chopped flat-leaf parsley |
1 teaspoon minced garlic |
salt and freshly ground black pepper |
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil |
Directions:
1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
2. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
3. Trim the stem from each artichoke to 1-inch long, then bend back and snap off dark outer leaves.
4. Cut top inch of artichokes with serrated knife.
5. Using a vegetable peeler, peel dark green areas from stem and base of artichoke.
6. Quarter each artichoke.
7. Using a small, sharp knife, cut out the choke and remove the purple, prickly tipped leaves from the center of each wedge.
8. Place finished artichokes in a large bowl of cold water and squeeze 2 lemons into the water and stir.
9. Continue with remaining artichokes.
10. Once finished, drain the artichokes and place into boiling water and cook until crisp-tender, about 12 minutes.
11. Drain the cooked artichokes and place onto preheated grill.
12. Cook until tender and lightly charred in spots, turning occasionally, about 10 minutes.
13. Meanwhile, in a medium sized bowl, add remaining lemon juice (1/3 cup) parsley, garlic and salt and pepper, to taste.
14. Gradually drizzle in olive oil.
15. Toss or drizzle the grill artichokes with the garlic/parsley mixture and serve.
