Prepare the artichokes by slicing off the top 1 inch of each artichoke and trimming the stem so they can sit flat. Remove the tough outer leaves and use scissors to trim the tips of the remaining leaves.
Using a spoon, gently scoop out the fuzzy choke from the center of each artichoke, creating a cavity for the stuffing.
In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add the artichokes and steam them for 25 minutes, or until the leaves are tender when pulled.
While the artichokes steam, prepare the stuffing. In a mixing bowl, combine Brie cheese (cut into small pieces), breadcrumbs, minced garlic, chopped parsley, lemon zest, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Mix until well combined.
Season the stuffing mixture with salt and black pepper to taste.
Once the artichokes are steamed and cool enough to handle, carefully stuff the cavity and between the outer leaves with the Brie mixture.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the stuffed artichokes in an oven-safe dish and drizzle the remaining olive oil over the top.
Bake the artichokes for 20-25 minutes, or until the Brie is melted and golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven, drizzle with fresh lemon juice, and garnish with additional parsley if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy by pulling the leaves through your teeth to savor the cheesy stuffing before reaching the tender artichoke heart.
