Artichokes?

Question

I heard people eat stuffed artichokes. How do you stuff an artichoke and with what???

Answer 1

Herb and Cheese Stuffed Artichoke

1 large artichoke
1 lemon, cut in half
1/2 cup fresh or panko* bread crumbs (*in the Asian section of supermarkets)
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted and chopped
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup chicken broth

With serrated knife, cut off the top third of the artichoke, about 1 inch, and discard. Trim the leaves around the base and trim the thorny tops of the remaining outer leaves using kitchen scissors. Rub the entire cut surface with lemon to prevent browning. Cut the bottom of the artichoke level so it sits upright. Squeeze the remaining lemon into a 3-quart pot with 1 inch of water. Boil over high heat, and add the artichoke. Reduce the heat, and cover and steam until tender, about 30 to 40 minutes. Drain. When cool enough to handle, pull out the prickly center leaves from the artichoke and scrape out the fuzzy choke using a teaspoon. (Don't cut the heart.) Discard.
Preheat oven to 400°F. In a medium bowl, combine the bread crumbs, olive oil, garlic, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, basil and salt and pepper. Mix well. Add 2 teaspoons of the chicken broth just until a moist, not wet, mixture is created. In a pie plate, add the remaining broth. Spoon bread mixture between artichoke leaves and into center cavity.

Place artichoke in pie plate, and bake until stuffing is golden and artichoke is warmed through, 15 to 20 minutes.

Answer 2

"Lemon-Studded Artichokes" - 2 servings

2 medium artichokes
1 tbsp. lemon juice
1 medium lemon; sliced
1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp. butter; melted
2-4 garlic cloves; minced

Rinse artichokes well; trim stems. With scissors, snip 1" off the tops. Snip the tip end from each leaf. Brush cut edges with lemon juice. Spread artichoke leaves open. Using a small knife, carefully cut around each center choke. Scoop out and discard the fuzzy centers.
Cut each of the lemon slices into 6 wedges; place between artichoke leaves. Place artichokes in an 8" microwave-safe dish. Combine butter and garlic; pour over artichokes. Cover and microwave on HIGH for 10-12 minutes or until artichokes are tender. Let stand for 5 minutes. Serve with garlic butter from the dish.
