Braised Artichoke Hearts
Contributed by: Melinda
Artichokes are a very healthy food, although they take time to
prepare and are somewhat messy to eat. On the other hand,
artichoke hearts can be purchased frozen or canned and even though
processed, still are very healthy. Artichokes are a liver/kidney
tonic as well as being full of fiber.
The dairy in this recipe can be left out. We do so much
entertaining I often have leftover cheese and cream that I hate to
throw out. This is a great dish to use some of that up, but still
has amazing flavor without.
1 pkg frozen artichoke hearts
1 cup chicken broth
1 slice bacon
1 clove garlic
Pinch saffron
8-10 grape tomatoes
1/8-1/4 cup cream (optional)
1/4 cup grated cheese (optional)
Fresh herb
Fresh ground black pepper
- Slice the bacon into 1/4 inch pieces - render and crisp in
a sauté pan until browned
- Add minced or grated garlic and stir to coat well with
bacon fat - cook about 30 seconds
- Add chicken broth, saffron and pepper
- Add artichoke hearts and bring sauce to a low boil
- Cook until artichokes are tender and sauce has reduced by
half
- Add cream if using and cherry tomatoes
- Continue cooking until cherry tomatoes are hot and sauce
is lightly thickened
- Remove from heat and add cheese if using, and fresh herb
With the bacon and cheese you most likely do not need salt,
but taste to be sure. We had this with a roast turkey breast
and used the sauce on the turkey. Yumm.
