Ingredients

• 2 pieces Large artichokes
• 1 whole Lemon
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 3 whole Garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the artichokes. Rinse them under cold water and trim about 1 inch off the top and bottom stems.

Step 2

Peel away the tough outer leaves near the base of the artichokes.

Step 3

With a sharp knife, cut the artichokes in half vertically and remove the choke (the fuzzy center) using a spoon.

Step 4

Rub the cut surfaces of the artichokes with half the lemon to prevent browning.

Step 5

Fill a large pot with about 2 inches of water and bring to a boil. Add a steamer basket and place the artichokes inside.

Step 6

Cover and steam the artichokes for about 15 minutes until the petals are tender and can be peeled off easily.

Step 7

Prepare your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 8

In a small bowl, combine olive oil, the juice of the remaining half lemon, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

Step 9

Brush the artichokes generously with the olive oil and lemon mixture.

Step 10

Place the artichokes cut-side down on the grill and grill for about 5-7 minutes, then turn and grill for another 5-7 minutes, until they are charred and tender.

Step 11

Chop fresh parsley and sprinkle over the grilled artichokes before serving.

Step 12

Serve warm as a delightful low-carb side dish or appetizer.
