Grilled Baby Artichokes

By janicecraig

Ingredients

• 10 baby artichokes, top and outer leaves trimmed, halved lengthwise
• 1 lemon, halved
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
• Pinch of Aleppo pepper
• Finely grated Parmesan (for serving)

Preparation

Step 1

Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Rub cut and trimmed sides of baby artichokes with lemon half.

Squeeze juice from second lemon half into a pot of boiling water and cook artichokes 5 minutes. Carefully place artichokes on a grill topper or in a grill basket, cut side up.

Grill until bottom side is browned, about 3 minutes; turn and grill until other side is browned and hearts are tender, about 3 minutes more.

Transfer artichokes to a platter and toss with oil; season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with Aleppo pepper and Parmesan.
