Artichoke Hearts Gratin
Use artichoke hearts for an easy, all-veggie appetizer idea that is proof you don't have to make a dish, to reinvent it.
Ingredients
- 6 canned artichoke hearts, drained and halved
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons dry bread crumbs
- ¼ cup finely grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ lemon, cut into wedges
Directions
- Place artichoke heart halves on a paper towel, cut-side down, to drain for about 15 minutes.
- Set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly coat with vegetable oil.
- Place artichoke heart halves on the prepared baking sheet, cut-side up. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with breadcrumbs, then cheese, and drizzle with olive oil.
- Broil artichoke hearts until browned on top, about 7 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.
