Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking sheet or baking dish
  • Small bowl
  • Whisk
  • Kitchen shears
  • Aluminum foil

Ingredients

  • 4 large artichokes approx. 2-3 lbs or 900-1360 g
  • ¼ cup olive oil 60 ml
  • 2 lemons, juiced and zested
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp dried thyme
  • 2 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Prepare the artichokes by cutting off the stems and the top 1 inch (2.5 cm) of the leaves. Snip the tips of the remaining leaves with kitchen shears to remove any thorns.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice and zest, minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, sea salt, and black pepper to create the herb marinade.
  • Place the artichokes cut-side up on a baking sheet or in a baking dish. Gently spread the leaves slightly apart and drizzle the lemon herb marinade evenly over each artichoke, ensuring it seeps into the leaves.
  • Flip the artichokes cut-side down on the baking sheet and wrap each one tightly with aluminum foil.
  • Roast in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes, or until the base of the artichokes can be easily pierced with a knife.
  • Unwrap the artichokes, turn them cut-side up again, and broil for an additional 5 minutes to achieve a golden brown finish.
  • Remove from oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Artichokes can vary greatly in size, so cooking times may need to be adjusted accordingly.
To make sure the artichokes are fully cooked, the leaves should pull away easily.
The lemon herb marinade can be made in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
If you prefer a stronger garlic flavor, feel free to add an extra clove or two.
