I saw a variation of this recipe in a magazine, but I adapted it by adding chicken and fiddle-faddling with the spices. Turned out to be a hit-even with my boys. It can be used as a bread on a toasted bagette, or used as a sandwich spread; thus I didn't list amount of servings.

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 artichokes cooked according to basic recipe and at room temperature
4 eggs
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon minced fresh chive
Tarragon dressing (recipe follows)

Steps:

  • Set the artichokes upright and gently spread the leaves away from the center. Using a tablespoon scoop out the center cluster of leaves and scrape away all of the fuzzy ''choke'' beneath them. Do not scrape away any of the fleshy bottom. Place artichokes on a serving dish or on individual plates.
  • Lightly beat the eggs with the mustard, lemon rind, lemon juice and salt and pepper.
  • Heat the oil in a skillet and scramble the eggs over medium heat until just set - do not overcook them - they should be fairly soft. Remove the eggs to a bowl and fold in the chive. Spoon some of the eggs into the cavity of each artichoke.
  • Spoon two or three tablespoons of the dressing on the eggs in the center of each artichoke and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose Fresh Artichokes: Select artichokes that are heavy for their size and have tightly closed leaves. Avoid artichokes with brown or wilted leaves.
  • Prepare Artichokes Properly: To prepare artichokes, remove the tough outer leaves and trim the stem. Cut the artichoke in half lengthwise and scoop out the hairy choke.
  • Cook Artichokes Thoroughly: Artichokes can be boiled, steamed, or roasted. Make sure to cook them until they are tender, but not mushy. Tenderness can be tested by piercing the artichoke heart with a fork.
  • Utilize Canned Artichokes: If fresh artichokes are not available, canned artichokes can be used as a convenient alternative. Drain and rinse canned artichokes before using.
  • Experiment with Herbs and Spices: Add your favorite herbs and spices to the artichoke and egg spread to create different flavor profiles. Garlic, lemon zest, paprika, and cayenne pepper are popular choices.
  • Chill Before Serving: For the best flavor and texture, chill the artichoke and egg spread for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the spread to firm up.
