Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

At least 10 baby artichokes
Vinegar for soaking (optional)
Lemon juice and wedges for serving
5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 pound waxy potatoes, like red-skinned ''new'' potatoes or fingerlings, peeled and cut, if necessary, into 1-inch chunks
Salt and pepper
Several sprigs of thyme
1/2 cup dry white wine, stock or water
1 cup small black olives, like niçoise, pitted if you like
1 pound shrimp, peeled
1 tablespoon minced garlic
Chopped fresh parsley leaves for garnish

Steps:

  • Prepare artichokes by trimming stem, cutting off pointed tips, removing tough leaves and cutting in half. If there is a choke, remove it. As each artichoke is finished, drop halves into a bowl of cold water with about 10 percent vinegar or lemon juice.
  • Put four tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet and turn heat to medium. Drain artichokes and place in skillet. Add potatoes and cook until vegetables are glossy and beginning to soften; do not brown. Sprinkle with salt and pepper; add thyme and liquid. Bring to a boil, cover and adjust heat so mixture simmers.
  • Cook just until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes, then uncover and raise heat again. Stir in olives, shrimp and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, 3 to 5 minutes, or until shrimp are pink. Taste and adjust seasoning, then garnish and serve with lemon wedges.

I didn't have any artichokes, so I used zucchini instead. The dish still turned out great!

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my dish didn't turn out as good as I hoped. The artichokes were tough and the potatoes were undercooked.
