This easy Roasted Artichoke recipe features fresh artichokes roasted in a rich butter sauce that’s delicious with garlic, lemon, and herbs. The artichokes are perfectly tender and flavorful, a simple appetizer or side dish!

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
3 large fresh artichokes
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon grated garlic
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
½ teaspoon Morton kosher salt
½ teaspoon cracked black pepper

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F and add the olive oil to a large rimmed baking dish.
Cut off the bottom of the stem and then cut 1" off the top of the artichoke. Slice the artichokes in half, through the stem. Then use a spoon to remove the fuzzy choke in the center – make sure to remove all of it. Rub a lemon wedge all over the cut surface of each artichoke half if desired, to prevent browning. Place artichokes in prepared baking dish, cut-side up.
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, lemon juice, garlic, thyme, and rosemary. Drizzle butter mixture over the cut artichokes. Sprinkle salt & pepper over the top.
Turn the artichokes cut-side down and roast for 55-60 minutes, or until the leaves pull away easily and a knife can be smoothly inserted into the base of the stem. Total cook time will depend on the size of the artichokes.
Transfer the artichokes to a serving platter and enjoy. They are delicious garnished with a sprinkle of minced parsley, grated parmesan, or sea salt flakes You can also dip the artichoke leaves in melted butter, if desired.
