Ingredients
Scale
- 2-4 artichokes, prepared for cooking (see post for detail instructions on prepping artichokes)
- 1 lemon, sliced into 4 sections
- 4-8 garlic cloves (depending on how many artichokes - you need 1 clove per half artichoke)
- fresh rosemary, sage or dill (OPTIONAL)
- salt and pepper
- olive oil spray (or use 2 tbsp of olive oil)
Instructions
For the stuffed artichoke oven method:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Prepare a rimmed baking dish by coating it with cooking spray.
- Rub the entire artichoke half on all sides with a lemon wedge (to help prevent browning)
- Spray the artichokes with olive oil (or brush them with olive oil).
- Place them cut-side-up in a baking dish, or on a baking sheet.
- Fill the artichoke cavities with garlic and herbs.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Flip the artichokes over and spray (or brush) them again with olive oil, season once more with salt and pepper.
- Bake at 400 degrees uncovered until the edges begin to brown. If edges begin to brown too much, cover the dish with foil.
- Bake for about 40-50 minutes or until the leaves pull off easily and a knife can be smoothly inserted into the base of the stem.
- Cooking time will totally depend upon the size of your artichokes
