Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound baby artichokes
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Fill a large bowl with cold water and add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice to prevent the artichokes from browning.
To prepare the baby artichokes, trim off the top 1/2 inch of each artichoke and snap off the tough outer leaves until the pale, tender inner leaves are revealed. Trim the stem and cut each artichoke in half lengthwise.
As you prepare each artichoke, immediately place it in the bowl of lemon water to keep it from discoloring.
Drain the artichokes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Toss the artichokes with olive oil, minced garlic, kosher salt, and black pepper in a large mixing bowl until evenly coated.
Spread the artichokes cut-side down in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the artichokes are golden brown and tender.
Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving dish.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese before serving warm.
