Ingredients for Artichoke Gratinata

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Garlic Clove
  • Frozen Artichoke Heart
  • Fresh Parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Black Pepper
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • Marsala Wine
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Plain Breadcrumbs
  • Parmesan Cheese

How to Make Artichoke Gratinata

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. Warm 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet (or transfer to a baking dish later) over medium-high heat.
  3. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Add 14 ounces (400g) of artichoke hearts (canned, drained), 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until artichoke hearts begin to brown at the edges, about 3 minutes.
  5. Pour in 1/2 cup chicken broth and 1/4 cup dry white wine. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3 minutes, allowing the liquid to slightly reduce.
  6. If using a regular skillet, carefully transfer the artichoke mixture to a 2-quart baking dish.
  7. In the same skillet (or baking dish), melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
  8. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with 1 cup of breadcrumbs.
  9. Stir in 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
  10. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the artichokes.
  11. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and bubbly.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
