Best Crispy Lemon Roasted Baby Artichokes Recipes

ROASTED BABY ARTICHOKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Prepare artichokes. Remove the tough outer leaves of the artichokes and trim the stems. Use a vegetable peeler to remove the tough outer green layer from the stem. Cut off the top third of the head to remove the tough ends of the leaves, then split it down the middle. Rub with lemon as you work so they don't turn brown.
• Mix together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper and garlic. Lay the artichoke halves cut-side up in a roasting dish and drizzle with the olive oil mixture. Roast in the oven until the artichokes are tender, about 20 minutes.
• To serve, top with the cheese and garnish with the parsley.

PAN-ROASTED BABY ARTICHOKES

Steps:

• Peel off and discard a few outer petals of the artichokes until you reach the pale, tender center. Trim the top and stem end, then quarter each artichoke. There should be no discernible choke, but if there is, remove it with a paring knife. Put the artichokes in a bowl of cold water to which the lemon juice has been added.
• In a wide, heavy, nonaluminum skillet, heat a 1/2 inch of olive oil over medium heat. Drain and blot the artichokes and, when the oil is nearly smoking, carefully add them to the skillet. Season well with salt and pepper, stirring to coat with oil. Let the artichokes brown slightly, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes, until they are tender when probed with a paring knife.
• Add the red pepper, garlic and parsley. Stir well and let sizzle for a minute or so. Transfer the artichokes to a platter, sprinkle with coarse salt and serve with lemon wedges, or sprinkle sparingly with red wine vinegar. Eat hot, or at room temperature.

AIR FRYER CRISPY ARTICHOKES

Steps:

• Make the artichokes: Preheat an air fryer to 360˚ F. Pat the artichoke hearts dry. Halve lengthwise. Put the flour in a shallow bowl; lightly beat the eggs in a second bowl. Whisk the panko, lemon zest, oregano and kosher salt in a third bowl. Coat the artichokes in the flour, then the egg, then the panko mixture.
• Lightly coat the artichokes with cooking spray and arrange sprayed-side down in the air fryer basket in an even layer. Cook 7 minutes. Spray the tops with more olive oil, flip and cook until golden brown, 7 more minutes.
• Make the dipping sauce: Whisk the mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil and salt in a small bowl. Serve with the artichokes.
