Crispy Artichokes Recipe

Preparation and Cooking

1. 1

   Prep the Artichokes

   Drain the canned artichoke hearts and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

2. 2

   Prepare the Breading Stations

   In one bowl, mix together flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. In another bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, place the bread crumbs.

3. 3

   Bread the Artichokes

   Coat each artichoke heart in the flour mixture, then dip it into the beaten eggs, and finally roll it in the bread crumbs, ensuring they are well coated.

4. 4

   Heat the Oil

   In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.

5. 5

   Fry the Artichokes

   Carefully place the breaded artichokes in the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy.

6. 6

   Drain and Serve

   Once cooked, remove the artichokes and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve warm with lemon wedges.
