Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 pound shallots
3 pounds baby artichokes (20 to 30)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leafed parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Halve shallots lengthwise. Pull tough outer leaves (about 5 layers) from artichokes so they resemble tight rosebuds. Cut off top third of each artichoke and discard. Trim stem ends and halve artichokes through stems.
  • In a large heavy skillet heat oil and butter over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté artichokes and shallots, stirring occasionally, until golden. Add broth and simmer, covered, 15 minutes, or until artichokes are almost tender. Add wine and boil, uncovered, until liquid is evaporated.
  • Toss braised vegetables with parsley and season with salt and pepper.

I found this dish to be a bit too time-consuming for a weeknight meal. I think I'll save it for a weekend when I have more time.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more garlic and lemon juice next time.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my artichokes were a bit tough. Maybe I cooked them for too long?

These braised baby artichokes and shallots were an absolute delight! The artichokes were tender and flavorful, while the shallots added a nice sweetness and depth of flavor. I especially loved the garlicky and lemony sauce.
