Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
If using frozen artichoke hearts, thaw them and pat dry. If using canned artichoke hearts, drain and rinse them thoroughly. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
In a mixing bowl, combine breadcrumbs, grated parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil into the breadcrumb mixture and toss to coat evenly. The mixture should have a slightly damp, crumbly texture.
In the prepared baking dish, arrange the artichoke hearts in a single layer. Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the hearts.
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture generously over the artichoke hearts, ensuring they are well-coated with the topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the breadcrumb topping is golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Optionally, garnish with additional parsley or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
Serve warm as a side dish, appetizer, or snack. Enjoy!
