Grilled Artichokes

One of my favorite summer foods is grilled artichokes! A spritz of lemon, a little sea salt, and an amazing sauce adds so much flavor. If you've never tried grilled artichokes, trust me on this one and TRY THEM!

Instructions
 

  • Boil a large pot of water.  
  • While the water is boiling, cut the artichokes in half. You want to cut it longways, including cutting through the stem (see picture). Take a spoon and scrape out the fuzzy inside. Make sure to leave as many leaves intact as possible. 
  • Once water is boiling, add artichokes to pot and cook for about 15 minutes, turning over once halfway through cook time.  
  • While the artichokes are finishing, heat up an outdoor or indoor grill. You can also use a grill pan but make sure to get it very hot.  
  • Remove artichokes from water and place them on a plate.  Drizzle the cut side of the artichokes with a little olive oil and place them cut side down on hot grill/pan.   
  • While they are grilling, mix together one cup of mayonnaise with a large spoonful of Old Bay seasoning. Add a good squeeze of lemon juice to the sauce and stir.  
  • Check the artichokes and see if the leaves are browning and crisping. Once you get a nice grilled look to them, you can remove them from the heat.  
  • Add a quick drizzle of olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, and a good sprinkle of sea salt. Dip leaves into sauce and enjoy!
