Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 Large globe artichokes
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 Lemon, juiced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 4 cups Water
Instructions
Fill a large pot with 4 cups of water and bring to a boil.
While waiting for the water to boil, prepare the artichokes: Cut off the top inch of each artichoke and trim the tips of the leaves with kitchen scissors. Cut off the stem so the artichoke can sit flat. Slice each artichoke in half lengthwise, exposing the choke.
Use a spoon to scoop out the fuzzy choke and any sharp purple-tipped leaves inside.
Once the water is boiling, add the artichoke halves and cook for about 10 minutes to slightly tenderize them. Drain and let them cool enough to handle.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to form a marinade.
Brush each artichoke half generously with the marinade, ensuring it gets between the leaves.
Place the artichokes cut-side down on the hot grill. Cook for 5-7 minutes on each side or until you see nice grill marks and the artichokes are tender.
Remove from the grill and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
Serve warm with a squeeze of additional lemon juice if desired.
