Ingredients

  • 4 large globe artichokes
  • 1 cup fine breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 4 cloves garlic, finely minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, finely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 cup olive oil, divided
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Trim the stems of the artichokes so they sit flat. Cut about 1 inch off the top and snip sharp tips from the leaves.
  3. Rinse artichokes thoroughly, spreading the leaves to remove grit.
  4. In a bowl, mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan, garlic, parsley, basil, salt, pepper, oregano, and red pepper flakes.
  5. Slowly drizzle in 1/4 cup olive oil while mixing until the stuffing is moist but crumbly.
  6. Gently pull open the artichoke leaves and stuff the breadcrumb mixture between them.
  7. Place stuffed artichokes upright in a baking dish.
  8. Pour the broth and lemon juice into the bottom of the dish and drizzle remaining 1/4 cup olive oil over the artichokes.
  9. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 50 minutes.
  10. Remove foil and bake uncovered for 20–25 minutes, until tops are golden and leaves pull away easily.
  11. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Use pecorino cheese for a sharper flavor variation.
  • Add lemon zest to the breadcrumb mix for extra brightness.
  • Do not boil the artichokes before baking—broth provides the needed steam.
  • Can be assembled ahead and baked later for convenience.
