BAKED ARTICHOKE APPETIZER



Baked Artichoke Appetizer image

This is a yummy favourite of mine to serve as part of pre-dinner munchies, or as a snack to a group of friends (it also doubles well). I found it many years ago in Out of This World CookBook II. Credit for the recipe goes to Virginia Prentice.

Provided by Lennie

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 30m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 (14 ounce) cans artichoke hearts, well drained
1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 cup mayonnaise (for best results, don't use Miracle Whip, it's too sweet)
1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt or 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Tabasco sauce, to taste (or any hot sauce)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
  • Spray a 4-cup casserole dish with Pam, or lightly grease it; set aside.
  • Chop drained artichokes and place in a mixing bowl.
  • Add all other ingredients and combine; put mixture into casserole dish.
  • Bake in preheated oven until hot and bubbly, about 20 minutes.
  • Serve with crackers, melba toast, or your favourite dippers.

Tips:

  • Select Tender Artichokes: Choose fresh, firm artichokes with tightly closed leaves. Avoid wilted or blemished artichokes.
  • Prep Artichokes Properly: Trim the artichoke stems and remove any tough outer leaves. Cut off the top inch of the artichoke to expose the heart.
  • Use Quality Ingredients: Fresh herbs, quality cheeses, and creamy ingredients like sour cream or cream cheese will elevate the flavor of your appetizers.
  • Vary the Cooking Method: Whether you prefer baking, steaming, or frying, choose a cooking method that best suits your taste and time constraints.
  • Experiment with Different Fillings: Feel free to mix and match different fillings to create unique and flavorful combinations. From spinach and bacon to roasted peppers and sundried tomatoes, the possibilities are endless.
  • Pay Attention to Timing: Overcooking artichokes can make them tough and bland. Be mindful of the cooking time and check for doneness regularly.
  • Serve with Style: Presentation matters! Arrange the artichoke appetizers on a platter or individual serving plates, and garnish with fresh herbs, lemon wedges, or a drizzle of balsamic glaze.

Conclusion:

Creamy artichoke appetizers are a versatile and delightful treat that can elevate any gathering. With their tender hearts, creamy fillings, and crispy exteriors, they offer a satisfying combination of flavors and textures. Whether you prefer baked, steamed, or fried artichokes, experimenting with different fillings and cooking methods will allow you to create a variety of delicious appetizers that will impress your guests.
