Try the grilled artichokes and you will be amazed.
Ingredients
Scale
4 medium artichokes
1/2 lemon
1/2 cup light mayonnaise (I like Hellmann’s)
2 tablespoons sweet Asian chile sauce
2 teaspoons sriracha
Instructions
- Using a serrated knife, cut 1/2 inch off the top of each artichoke. Cut each in half vertically. With a scissors, trim the pointy ends off the leaves. Using a spoon, scrape out the fuzzy choke in the center and discard.
- Rub artichokes all over with lemon.
- Fill a large pot with water and fit with a steaming rack. Place artichokes on rack and steam until they are tender and easily pierced with a fork, about 30 minutes.
- Set aside to cool for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat grill to high heat.
- In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sweet Asian chile sauce and sriracha; blend well. Set aside.
- Grill artichokes, cut side down, on a greased grill rack, until nicely charred, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Serve hot with dipping sauce.
