Crispy Artichoke Hearts
Method
Preparation of Crispy Artichoke Hearts
- 1
Prepare the Artichoke Hearts
If using canned artichoke hearts, drain and rinse them under cold water. If using frozen, thaw them completely and pat dry with paper towels.
- 2
Set Up Breading Stations
Prepare three shallow dishes. In the first, place the flour mixed with salt and black pepper. In the second, beat the eggs until well combined. In the third, add the breadcrumbs mixed with grated Grana Padano cheese.

Bread the Artichoke Hearts
Dredge each artichoke heart in the flour, shaking off the excess. Dip into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, coat them in the breadcrumb and cheese mixture, pressing gently to ensure the crumbs adhere.

Fry the Artichoke Hearts
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the breaded artichoke hearts in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Prepare the Creamy Herb Sauce
In a mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, minced garlic, chopped parsley, and lemon juice. Stir until well mixed and season with salt and pepper to taste.
