Lemony Wine-Braised Artichokes
Preparing fresh artichokes requires time and patience, so to keep this stovetop braise quick and easy, we use frozen artichoke hearts. They simmer in white wine infused with aromatics and a little chicken broth, with a few strips of lemon zest to provide citrusy essential oils. Lemon juice and butter added at the very end round out and brighten the dish. A Y-style vegetable peeler is the best tool for removing zest in strips from the fruit, but try to take only the yellow peel, as the white pith underneath is bitter. Serve with warm, crusty bread.

Tip
Don’t use canned or marinated artichoke hearts for this recipe. Frozen artichokes have a fresher, cleaner flavor that’s a better partner for the butter, wine and lemon.

Simple, clean flavors and absolutely delicious. I used a mix of mint and parsley from my garden. The herbs, butter, lemon juice and S&P at the end really bring it together.

Best artichoke dish ever
I've made this more than half a dozen times in the last 3 months. It tastes like artichokes and it's just delicious. Served with quinoa for a healthy vegetarian dinner.

Can't find the ingredient
I cannot find frozen artichokes anywhere. We have several boutique grocery stores in Minnesota offering unique ingredients, but no luck. Bummer, as I would have loved to try this dish. Any suggestions for substitutions?
