Using Canned Artichoke Hearts
Fresh artichokes can sometimes be difficult to work with, so I've made this recipe simple using canned artichokes (frozen ones work too).
In just a few simple steps, you can have delicious, crispy artichokes that are perfect for serving as a bite-size appetizer or an easy side dish or adding to a salad or grain bowls. I think this is the best way to enjoy artichokes!
One of the best things about an artichoke is its heart. When you buy canned, frozen, or jarred artichoke hearts, the fuzzy choke (the hairy parts at the center of the artichoke you can't eat) is already removed. There's no prep work necessary.
Roasted Artichoke Hearts Ingredients
- Artichoke Hearts - use a can of halved, quartered, or whole artichoke hearts. If you get a can of whole artichokes, you'll need to cut them in half before using them. If you get a can of artichoke halves, you can use them as-is or cut them into quarters - depending on how large of a piece you want.
- Olive Oil - toss this with the artichoke hearts, making sure each one gets a little coating. This will help the artichoke hearts get crispy.
- Parmesan - add this near the end of the baking time so it doesn't burn. The parmesan will get crispy and add an extra flavor punch.
- Salt & Pepper - season the artichokes with just a little s&p.
- Optional Toppings - If you'd like to add a bit more flavor, you can mix the parmesan with 2 minced garlic cloves before sprinkling it onto the artichoke hearts.
Serving Ideas
You can serve the artichokes on their own or with a savory sauce like Basil Aioli, a sweet dipping sauce like Honey Dijon Dressing, or a creamy dip like this Avocado Sauce.
Definitely serve them with a lemon wedge to give them a little squeeze of fresh lemon juice before eating!
