Lemon Roasted Artichokes

LEMON ROASTED ARTICHOKES

INGREDIENTS
Artichoke – 2	Basil – 1 tsp
Garlic – 6-8 cloves	Rosemary – 1 tsp
Lemon – 2	Sage – 1 tsp
Olive Oil – 1 ½ Tbsp	Thyme – 1 tsp
Pink Himalayan Salt – 1 tsp	Black Pepper – 1 tsp
DIRECTIONS
Add salt to a pot of water and bring to a boil. Preheat oven to 400°.
Cut the stems from the artichokes and trim 1” from the top. Cut one lemon in half, and trim the ends from the other lemon.
Squeeze the juice from the half lemons into the boiling water, then drop the hulls into the water, along with the trimmed artichokes. Let boil 3-5 minutes, then reduce heat for a gentle simmer. Set a time for 15 minutes.
In the meantime, combine all dry seasonings in a small bowl, and slice the other lemon into 4-8 pieces
Remove artichokes from water when timer goes off, and when cool enough to handle, slice in half the long way and remove the hairy center.
Transfer artichokes to a pan. Place 2-3 garlic cloves in the center of each artichoke, drizzle with oil, sprinkle on seasoning, then place a slice of lemon on top of each artichoke half. Place the remaining lemon slices on the pan to add flavor as the artichokes roast
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until nicely browned.
Enjoy!
