Fried Artichokes

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Artichokes

    If using canned artichoke hearts, drain and rinse them. Pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

  2. 2

    Set up the Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, place the flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second, and a mixture of bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper in the third.

  3. 3

    Bread the Artichokes

    Coat each artichoke heart first in flour, then dip it in the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with the breadcrumb mixture. Ensure each piece is well-coated.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large, deep skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry the Artichokes

    Carefully add the breaded artichokes to the hot oil in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes, flipping halfway through.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fried artichokes with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with Chipotle aioli sauce.
