1000 Artichoke Hearts Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Turn drained artichokes upside down to get all the liquid out. Halve artichoke hearts, lengthwise. Drizzle a small casserole dish with a little extra-virgin olive oil, and spread it around the dish with a pastry brush. Arrange the halved artichoke hearts with tops up, bottoms down, in a layered pattern in the dish. Squeeze the juice of 1/4 lemon over the hearts.
• Preheat a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add oil and butter to the skillet. When butter melts into oil, add garlic and anchovies. Using the back of a wooden spoon, work anchovies into oil as they break up. When anchovies have dissolved into oil, add bread crumbs to the pan and lightly toast, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add parsley, cheese and black pepper, stir to combine and remove pan from heat. Top artichokes with an even layer of bread topping and set in the middle of oven. Bake 10 minutes until artichokes are warm and topping is deep golden brown in color.

Steps:

• Squeeze as much liquid as possible out of the artichoke hearts and drain them on paper towels.
• Roll each heart in egg wash, and then roll in breadcrumbs until well-coated.
• Deep fry for one to two minutes until lightly browned and slightly crispy.
• Melt butter (use your judgment as to how much) and garlic in a small, individual sauté pan.
• Sauté hearts for two minutes in the garlic butter, basting each heart and taking care not to burn the butter or garlic.
• Serve right in the pan with firm bread such as French or Italian.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• If necessary, slice off the bottom of each artichoke heart so that it sits upright.
• In a small bowl, combine cream cheese, garlic, chives, salt and pepper.
• Stuff hearts with cream cheese mixture, mounding slightly on top.
• Roll stuffed hearts in melted butter and then in Parmesan cheese.
• Place in a shallow ovenproof dish and bake for 15 minutes or until hot and bubbly.

Steps:

• Thaw the artichoke hearts.
• Place flour in a bowl and add egg yolks, nutmeg and salt, pepper and tabasco to taste. Gradually beat in 1 cup milk. Stir in baking powder. Coat artichokes in batter. Adjust the consistancy with the extra milk if needed.
• Drop the artichokes one at a time into oil (deep enough to cover artichokes), heated to 360 degrees. Cook, turning, until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
• Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce (I like ranch or flavored mayo)!

Steps:
