kcalIngredients
4 large artichokes (about 2 1/4 pounds)
2 lemons, halved
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
Raw Tomato Compote (prepared separately)
Directions
- Prepare the artichokes by trimming the stems and removing the tough outer leaves. Cut off the top third of each artichoke.
- Rub the artichoke halves with lemon to prevent browning, and squeeze the remaining lemon juice over them.
- In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the artichokes for 15-20 minutes until tender. Drain and let cool slightly.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the artichokes with extra-virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Grill the artichokes, cut-side down, for about 5 minutes until charred and heated through.
- Serve the grilled artichokes with a generous spoonful of raw tomato compote on top.
