Roasted Lemon Artichoke Hearts
Artichoke hearts may be well-known as a sidekick to spinach in a popular dip (like this crab spinach artichoke dip, perhaps), but they are equally delicious on their own. Roasting creates caramelization, which only enhances the flavor, like in this pancetta green bean recipe.
These artichoke hearts are completely addicting. Lemon, garlic, red pepper flakes, and rosemary provide an explosion of flavor.
You may want to double this recipe... these are simply THAT good! Leftovers - if you are lucky enough to have some - are delicious in this warm artichoke dip.
Ingredient Notes
- Artichoke hearts - Use canned artichoke hearts packed in water. Don't use the jarred varieties, which are typically marinated in oil. Save those for antipasto platters! Frozen artichoke hearts can also be used. Be sure to thaw them first.
- Lemon and rosemary are a match made in heaven, and these flavors go perfectly with artichokes.
- Garlic is another flavor bomb that pairs beautifully with artichokes.
- Red pepper flakes add a touch of heat. You can adjust the amount of spice to your liking.
- Panko breadcrumbs add crunch and texture to the finished dish. I prefer panko because their crumb is larger and more flaky than traditional breadcrumbs.
Step-by-Step Instructions
See the recipe card for complete instructions and ingredient amounts.
- Drain and pat the artichoke hearts dry. Add them to a mixing bowl with olive oil, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine.
- Transfer the mixture to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Top with lemon slices and rosemary.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes until the artichokes are caramelized, flipping them over after 15 minutes.
- During the last 5 minutes of cooking time, toast the breadcrumbs. Add olive oil to a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the panko and cook until toasted and golden brown. Stir in the parsley.
- Transfer the artichoke hearts to a serving plate and top with the breadcrumbs. Serve.
Serving ideas
- Pair with fish, beef, lamb, or chicken.
- Top with creamy Caesar dressing for an extra punch of flavor.
- Stir into pasta or risotto like this spinach artichoke risotto.
- Serve as an appetizer with roasted garlic dip.
- Add as a topping on a white pizza.
Recipe FAQs
Quartered artichokes are best for roasting because they provide optimal surface area for caramelization. Both canned and frozen artichoke hearts can be purchased already quartered. If you have whole (canned or frozen) artichoke hearts, cut them into quarters before roasting.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Reheat in a 350℉ oven.
Canned artichoke hearts are readily available all year long. They are convenient and ready to use, unlike fresh artichokes, which involve a lot of preparation.
