No, No, No!! The artichoke came out tough. It was a beautiful gigantic artichoke I splurged on from Trader Joe’s. At least the heart was salvageable. Give me the steamer method any day.
Best ever. I had a mega large artichoke. It was so big that I cut it in half. Then followed the recipe. It turned out perfect. I won’t cook an artichoke any other way anymore!!!
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS RECIPE! For years I have been simmering in water with olive oil and lemon. This recipe is the absolute best. I make roasted artichokes several time a week. So simple and utterly delicious!
no changes
These artichokes are easy to prepare and so delicious. I usually have a few dipping sauces and melted butter however very little was used as these artichokes have so much flavor. This is a show stopping recipe for everyone to enjoy, even the dog!
So simple to make and delicious
We have artichokes twice every week while they are in season and this is the best way to fix them. I have steamed, boiled, microwaved, grilled and pressure cooked artichokes. This is the best. The flavor is out of this world.
No taste at all.
Turn out great, One thing that I will need to make sure to due is crush the garlic a little better.
easiest and best roasted artichokes I’ve made.
First time cooking artichoke and this recipe was perfect! Followed exactly as written and will be my go to for artichokes from now on!
I just use water and lemon juice. The oil makes the leaves very slippery. The garlic takes away from the subtle artichoke flavor, so I leave that out too. Other than that the artichokes come out perfectly each time.
This is so good.
It is perfect! I made a mayo mustard dip and we eat them all, Very delicious. At the end I roasted at 500 on the broiler for 5 minutes with out the paper.
just follow directions
Literally the easiest way to make artichokes.
Easy way to make artichokes! They turned out excellent, the salt is crucial. Also decided to add blue cheese at the last 5 minutes of cooking and it melted beautifully and melted between the leaves. Definitely will make this again!
I am growing artichokes in my garden and I made this with my first harvest of the season. I also grow Meyer lemons so it was naturally the right move. I added a few cracks of pepper to this recipe. It was amazing. I have to add that a fresh picked artichoke has such tenderness and freshness. Best artichoke dish I have ever had!!
The simplest way to make your own artichokes and the most delicious……..have always eaten artichokes with some sort of aioli but these are incredible on their own!
I used chopped garlic instead of the whole piece. Easy to make and was delicious. Definitely make it again
Very simple with delicious results. I used to steam artichokes, but while this takes longer, the garlic and oil flavor makes it well worth the wait!
