Print Recipe

Thank you PureWow for the recipe!

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice (divided)

  • 12 artichokes (quartered)

  • 4 garlic cloves (skin on)

  • ⅓ cup olive oil 

  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

  • ½ cup mayonnaise

Instructions

  1. Season a large pot of water with salt and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, then bring it to a boil. 

  2. Peel the tough outer leaves from the artichokes until you get to the tender yellowish leaves in the center. Remove the top third of each artichoke and discard. Use a vegetable peeler to remove any of the remaining tough leaves and the outside stem. Scoop out the fuzzy part in the center of each artichoke and discard. 

  3. Boil the prepared artichoke hearts for 8-10 minutes. Drain and pat them dry with paper towels. 

  4. Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, toss the dried artichoke hearts and garlic cloves with olive oil. Arrange the pieces in an even layer on a baking sheet and season them with salt and pepper. Roast, tossing occasionally, until the artichoke hearts are golden brown and crisp — 25-30 minutes. 

  5. Squeeze the garlic cloves out of their skins and into a small bowl. Mash the cloves with a fork until they’re smooth. Stir in the mayonnaise and the remaining 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. 

  6. Serve the crispy artichoke hearts immediately with the garlic aioli on the side.
