Grilled Artichokes Ingredients: Preparation: Slice artichoke leaf tips off crosswise to removed thorny tips and discard tips. Trim artichoke stems and cut off end. Boil or steam artichokes until you can poke a fork tip into the stem or a petal pulls off easily. Drain artichokes and cool. Cut each artichoke in half lengthwise and scrape out fuzzy center and any purple tipped petals. Drain artichokes. Place cut side down on a grill over a solid bed of medium coals or a gas grill on medium. As the artichokes cook, baste them with the sauce every few minutes. Grill until lightly browned on cut side, 5-7 minutes. Turn artichokes over and grill un petal side until petals are lightly charred, 305 minutes more. |
