Ingredients
- 2 pieces large artichokes
- 1 piece lemon
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil. Meanwhile, prepare the artichokes.
Step 2
Cut off the top third of each artichoke and trim the stem. Remove the outer layer of tough leaves from the base.
Step 3
Rub the cut surfaces of the artichokes with half a lemon to prevent browning.
Step 4
Once the water is boiling, add a pinch of salt and the artichokes. Boil for 15 minutes or until the artichokes' bases are just tender.
Step 5
Drain and cool the artichokes under cold running water. Then, cut each artichoke in half lengthwise and use a spoon to remove the fuzzy choke from the center.
Step 6
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Step 7
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Step 8
Brush the artichoke halves with the garlic olive oil mixture on all sides.
Step 9
Place the artichokes cut-side down on the grill. Cook for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until grill marks appear and the leaves are tender.
Step 10
Transfer the grilled artichokes to a serving plate. Squeeze the remaining lemon half over them and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
Step 11
Serve warm as an appetizer or side dish, and enjoy!
