Petals of savory artichoke leaves are so delicious dipped into a creamy lemon aioli. It may seem intimidating to roast whole artichokes, but the steps couldn't be simpler—and the earthy, comforting flavor is a definite payoff. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen

Test Kitchen tips
  • To clean an artichoke, rinse under cold water. Use a soft kitchen brush to gently remove a natural, light film produced as it grows, which can give artichokes a bitter taste.
  • The edible parts of an artichoke are the base of the petals, the center core of the stem and the heart. The fuzzy choke at the center is not edible.

    Text Ingredients

    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 400°. Using a sharp knife, cut 1 in. from top of each artichoke. Using kitchen scissors, cut off tips of outer leaves. Cut each artichoke lengthwise in half. With a spoon, carefully scrape and remove fuzzy center of artichokes.
    2. Drizzle oil into a 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Rub cut surfaces of artichokes with lemon half; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place in pan, cut side down. Squeeze lemon juice over artichokes. Cover pan with foil; bake on a lower oven rack until tender and a leaf near the center pulls out easily, 50-55 minutes.
    3. Meanwhile, mix aioli ingredients; refrigerate until serving. Serve with artichokes.
