Happy, Girl Meets Grill, Friday! Our neighbor, Colin Chase, grilled
artichokes for us years ago. They were smoky, tender, and DELISH! Thanks
to him, grilled artichokes became my favorite grilled vegetable. I love eating
layer by layer to get to the heart. This is the best way to eat an artichoke
and it’s healthy too. Thank you Colin! He shared this recipe with me and
you must grill these because you will get "all choked
up"
ingredients
2 large artichokes
1 lemon, quartered
3/4 cup olive oil
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black
pepper
preparation
Fill a large bowl with cold water.
Squeeze the juice from one lemon wedge into the water. Trim the tops from the
artichokes, then cut in half lengthwise, and place halves into the bowl of
lemon water to prevent them from turning brown.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
Meanwhile, preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
Add artichokes to boiling water, and
cook for about 15 minutes. Drain. Squeeze the remaining lemon wedges into a
medium bowl. Stir in the olive oil and garlic, and season with salt and pepper.
Brush the artichokes with a coating
of the garlic dip, and place them on the preheated grill. Grill the artichokes
for 5 to 10 minutes, basting with dip and turning frequently, until the tips
are a little charred. Serve immediately with the remaining dip. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
