Ingredients:
- 4 artichokes
- 2 t balsamic vinegar
- 1 t dried oregano
- ½ t sea salt
- 2 T lemon juice
- ½ cup olive oil
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- ¼ t black pepper
- Directions:
- wash the artichokes with cold water and remove the stems so they’re ½ an inch from the base. Take off the lower petals and cut off the top of the artichoke. Trim the petals with shears
- Put the artichokes with the bottom at the top on the inner pot with the steamer basket and 2 cups of water on top
- Choose the steam option and let it steam for 8 minutes
- While steaming use the rest of the ingredients to prepare the marinade by mixing it together and then shaking to incorporate everything.
- Once done, remove the artichokes and let them cool. Halve them and take out the center and the cores. You should take out the thistle that protects the heart.
- Put the marinade over the artichokes, turning it to fully cover the heart with the marinade. Let them sit for anywhere from 30 mins to a night, depending on what you desire.
- Sear the artichokes on the grill for about 5 minutes before serving.
