Grilled Whole Artichoke (gf, V) Recipe

Preparation Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Artichokes

   Trim the stems of the artichokes and remove the tough outer leaves. Cut the tops off the artichokes and rub the cut edges with half a lemon to prevent browning.

2. 2

   Make the Caper Aioli

   In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, minced garlic, chopped capers, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and set aside.

3. 3

   Prepare the Lemon Oil

   In a small bowl, mix olive oil with the juice of one lemon and a pinch of salt.

4. 4

   Grill the Artichokes

   Boil artichokes in salted water for about 10-15 minutes until tender. Drain and let cool slightly. Brush the artichokes with lemon oil and place them on a preheated grill. Grill for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally until charred.

5. 5

   Grill the Lemon

   Slice the remaining lemon in half and grill cut-side down for about 3-4 minutes until caramelized.

6. 6

   Serve

   Serve the grilled artichokes with the caper aioli and grilled lemon on the side.
