Absolutely delicious!
Stuffed artichokes are one of my family's most favorite dish, but, with the cost of artichokes being so high, it's a struggle to afford them for my large troop.
Using all the same ingredients that are in my stuffed artichokes, this casserole presents all the same delicious flavors with much less cost per person. But, guess what the best part is? It takes just about 5 minutes to prepare and then let the oven do the rest. Yes, my kind of recipe!
Ingredients:
1 (14 oz.) can artichoke hearts, cut into quarters and drained (rinse lightly to remove the briny taste)
1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
2 Tbsp. fresh parsley, chopped or 2/3 tsp. dried parsley flakes
Pinch of oregano (if desired)
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 Tbsp. Parmigiano cheese, grated
3-4 Tbsp. olive oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375'F. and spray a casserole dish with cooking spray
In a large mixing bowl, combine bread crumbs, parsley, garlic, Parmesan cheese. Now add the olive oil, salt and pepper, stir again. Make moist enough to form a small ball when formed. Lastly, add the artichoke hearts and gently mix all together.
Pour into a small casserole dish, spread out evenly. Sprinkle with a little more olive oil and grated Parmesan. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake at 375'F. for 20 minutes.
Increase the oven temperature to 400'F. Remove the lid and bake for an additional 10 minutes or so until the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
It's that easy!
Yields: 4 servings
A Tip from Grammy:
-Double the recipe for a larger group
-If you like a more briny flavor, don't rinse the artichoke hearts
Be encouraged!
