Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Artichokes

    Trim the stems of the artichokes and remove the tough outer leaves. Cut about an inch off the top of each artichoke and use scissors to snip the sharp tips of the leaves.

  2. 2

    Make the Stuffing

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread crumbs, Romano cheese, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Drizzle in the olive oil and mix until the ingredients are well combined and moistened.

  3. 3

    Stuff the Artichokes

    Gently separate the leaves of each artichoke and stuff the mixture into the crevices, ensuring that the stuffing is packed in well.

  4. 4

    Steam the Artichokes

    Place the stuffed artichokes upright in a steamer basket over boiling water. Cover and steam for about 40-50 minutes, or until the leaves are tender and easily pull away from the base.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the artichokes from the steamer and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm, dipping the leaves in your favorite sauce if desired.
