Tender stuffed artichokes filled with a garlicky Parmesan breadcrumb mixture, lightly steamed then baked until golden and fragrant. A rustic, elegant centerpiece that tastes as comforting as it looks.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large artichokes, trimmed
  • 1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 lemon, halved
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups water or vegetable broth

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish large enough to hold the artichokes upright.
  2. Trim artichokes by cutting off stems so they sit flat, snip sharp leaf tips, and slice about 1 inch from the top. Rub all cut surfaces with lemon to prevent browning.
  3. Steam artichokes in a large pot with a steamer basket for about 15 minutes until slightly tender but not fully cooked. Remove and cool slightly.
  4. In a bowl, combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan, garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper. Drizzle in olive oil while tossing until the mixture is evenly moistened and clumps when pressed.
  5. Gently pull the artichoke leaves apart to create space. Spoon and press the breadcrumb mixture between the leaves and over the top of each artichoke.
  6. Place stuffed artichokes upright in the baking dish. Pour water or vegetable broth into the bottom of the dish.
  7. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake 10 to 15 minutes more until the tops are golden.
  8. Rest 5 minutes, drizzle with a little extra olive oil if desired, and serve warm with lemon wedges.

Notes

  • Note: Pack the stuffing lightly so steam can circulate and the artichokes cook evenly.
  • Position artichokes snugly in the dish to keep them upright during baking.
  • For extra color, broil the tops for 1 to 2 minutes after baking.
  • Use panko or gluten-free breadcrumbs as needed without changing the method.
