J. Alexander Char-Grilled Artichokes
J. Alexander Char-Grilled Artichokes
Ingredients
- artichokes, stray leaves trimmed
- water
- 1/2 teaspoon olive oil per artichoke half
- Kosher salt to taste
- Freshly cracked black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Wash the artichokes properly.
- Trim all stray leaves off the stem and slice the artichoke straight down the middle.
- Using your small spoon, dig right into the choke above the heart. Remove the fuzzy choke and scrape around in there to get everything clean.
- Place the artichokes halves on the heavy-duty foil cut-side up and season with salt, pepper, and olive oil .
- Pull the edges of the foil up and add ½ cup of water. Seal the foil packet ready for grilling.
- Place the foil packet on the hot grill for 20-25 minutes.
- Once the heart is tender, remove the artichokes from the foil and grill the leaf side for a bit of grill flavor and nice grill marks. Don’t grill for too long, as the leaves will become tough.
- Flip the artichokes and grill the inside.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
- *See the recipe for J. Alexander Artichoke Dip for dipping.
