Stuffed Artichokes

I grew up on artichokes; they’re one of my grandmother’s specialties, and it was one of the things that made me realize at a young age that I’m not just a meat-and-potatoes kind of girl. This recipe is a touch more complicated than Ima’s simmered artichokes with lemon and garlic, but it’s perfect for a Yom Tov table.

Directions

Prepare the Artichokes

1. Bring a medium pot of water to boil. Boil frozen artichokes for 10–13 minutes or until firm but easy to pierce with a fork.

2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Line a non-disposable baking sheet with Gefen Parchment Paper and spray well with cooking spray. Lay out artichokes.

Prepare the Filling

1. In a medium bowl, mix meat, shallots, one teaspoon salt, granulated onion, rosemary, pepper, and one cup spinach.

2. Lightly season the artichokes with salt and fill with meat filling. Sprinkle the tops with panko crumbs and season the top of each with a pinch of salt. Bake for one hour.
