Stuffed Artichokes
Ingredients
- 3 artichoke jumbo
- 2 lemon
- 1 1/2 cups bread crumbs dry
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese grated
- 1/2 cup asiago cheese grated
- 1/4 cup parsley chopped
- 2 tsp garlic granulated
- 4 Tbsp olive oil extra virgin
- salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Rinse artichokes in cold water. Zest the 2 lemons & set aside. Juice the lemons in a large bowl & fill with ice cold water.
- Slice off the top 1" of the artichokes, exposing the heart. Remove the stem by slicing off completely, creating a flat base so the artichoke can stand upright. Scoop out the fuzzy "choke" in the center of the artichoke. Place the clean/cored artichoke in the bowl of acidulated water.
- Combine bread crumbs, cheese, parsley, lemon zest, garlic & olive oil in a large bowl & mix well.
- Remove the artichokes from the water & place in an oven proof baking dish. Fill each artichoke with equal amounts of stuffing. Pour an inch of water into the bottom of the dish. Cover with foil & place in oven for 45 minutes, until bottom of artichoke is tender.
