CREAMY ARTICHOKE AND HEIRLOOM TOMATO TART



Creamy Artichoke and Heirloom Tomato Tart image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield about 20 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 batch Flaky Pastry Dough, recipe follows
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small yellow onion, coarsely chopped
3 small cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
1/2 teaspoon maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
One 8-ounce package cream cheese, such as Philadelphia, at room temperature
One 6.5-ounce jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
1 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
1/2 cup mayonnaise, such as Hellmann's or Best Foods
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 heirloom tomatoes, a mix of sizes and colors, sliced 1/4 inch thick
10 fresh basil leaves
2 tablespoons fresh dill sprigs
1 pound all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 pound (4 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into 2-tablespoon pieces, at slightly cooler than room temperature
6 ounces ice-cold water
1 teaspoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a half-sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Using a half-sheet pan as a guide, roll the Flaky Pastry Dough out to a bit larger than the sheet pan (13 by 18 inches). Trim the dough with a sharp knife and transfer to the prepared sheet pan (it should fit snugly). Refrigerate for 20 minutes to chill.
  • Dock the dough with a fork and bake until risen and golden brown on top, about 35 minutes. Set aside.
  • In a skillet, combine the olive oil, onions and garlic; saute over medium heat until the onions have softened, about 15 minutes. Add the maple syrup and paprika and stir to combine.
  • In the bowl of a food processor, combine the cream cheese, artichoke hearts, Parmigiano-Reggiano, mayonnaise, the onion mixture and salt and pepper to taste. Pulse until mostly smooth, with a few small artichoke pieces remaining.
  • Gently spread the artichoke mixture over the pastry, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Top with the sliced tomatoes. Bake until the edges of the filling are beginning to brown, about 15 minutes.
  • Top with the fresh herbs. Serve warm and immediately.
  • Add the flour and salt to a large bowl and stir to combine. Add the butter and toss to combine. With your fingers, begin to "smush" the butter into flat pieces. Continue smushing until all the butter is flattened but none of the pieces are larger than a quarter. The flour will look like coarse cornmeal.
  • Add the water, quickly folding it in with a wooden spoon to distribute the moisture. (Do not stir vigorously--the dough should appear shaggy.) Use your hands to break up any large clumps of moisture. Then use your knuckles or a palm to smear the dough up the sides of the bowl (a technique known as fraisage). This distributes the butter over a larger surface to achieve larger flakes and compact the dough. Once you've gone around the bowl one time, fold the dough over itself a few times to pick up any dry bits from the bottom. Gently press the dough into a disk. (Note: The dough should remain very cool to the touch throughout the process. If it approaches room temperature, refrigerate it for 5 to 10 minutes to chill.)
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and roll out to a 10-by-12-inch rectangle. Perform a letter fold by folding one of the short ends towards the middle and the other short end over the first, like folding a business letter.
  • Turn the dough 90 degrees, so the long side faces you, and perform a second letter fold. Turn the dough 90 degrees again; perform a third letter fold.
  • If the dough still feels cool, it can be used immediately. Otherwise, wrap it in plastic wrap and chill for at least 20 minutes. The dough can be refrigerated for up to 1 week or frozen for up to 1 month.

BAKED ARTICHOKE PASTA WITH CREAMY GOAT CHEESE



Baked Artichoke Pasta With Creamy Goat Cheese image

This cheese-filled pasta bake gets its sweet and crunchy topping from a layer of canned fried onions and Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top. Canned artichokes give it a savory depth, while a combination of goat cheese, cream cheese and mozzarella make it wonderfully gooey. Make sure to use plain - not marinated - artichokes, which will be too sharp and acidic here. You're looking for a mellow richness in this comforting casserole.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     dinner, weekday, pastas, main course

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Salt, as needed
1 pound fusilli, farfalle or other short pasta
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
1 large bunch scallions, thinly sliced, whites and greens separated
4 fat garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, plus more for serving
8 ounces cream cheese (1 cup), cubed
6 ounces goat cheese, cubed
2 (14-ounce) cans artichoke hearts (not marinated), drained and cut into 1-inch pieces
2 cups canned fried onions
6 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese (1 1/2 cups)
1 cup chopped parsley
1 cup chopped fresh dill
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees and bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Cook fusilli according to package directions until 3 minutes shy of al dente. Reserve 3 cups pasta water, then drain.
  • Meanwhile, in a large oven-proof skillet, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook scallion whites until softened, about 5 minutes, then add garlic and cook another 1 minute. Stir in red-pepper flakes, and cook another 30 seconds.
  • Whisk in 1 1/2 cups pasta water, cream cheese and goat cheese, and simmer, whisking, until smooth. Stir in artichokes, 1 cup fried onions, the mozzarella, the parsley, the dill and the reserved scallion greens, then stir in cooked pasta and black pepper. Add more pasta water if it seems too dry; you want this to be fairly liquid, because the pasta will soak up the sauce as it bakes. Taste and add some salt if needed.
  • Top pasta with remaining cup of fried onions and the Parmesan. Bake until filling is bubbly and onions are browned, about 10 to 20 minutes. Serve drizzled with olive oil, and with more red-pepper flakes on the side if you like.

CREAMY ARTICHOKE BAKED PASTA



Creamy Artichoke Baked Pasta image

A creamy, rich, and cheesy vegetarian white baked pasta with loads of flavor-rich artichoke hearts tossed in. Just add leftover turkey or cooked chicken for the carnivores!

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 ounces tube shaped pasta (I used cavatappi, cooked)
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 small onion (diced)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 cup 2% milk
1 cup half and half
1 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 1/2 cups + 1/2 cup Italian blend shredded cheese (divided (10 ounces total)*)
1 14-ounce can marinated artichokes, drained and chopped
Kosher salt and pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  • Set a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil. Once the oil, is hot, add onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add in garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Add in the milk, half and half, Italian seasoning, and crushed red pepper.
  • Simmer over medium heat until warmed through, but don't let the mixture boil as you don't want to scorch the milk.
  • Once the milk is hot, add in 2-1/2 cups shredded cheese and stir to combine. You want the cheese to fully melt in a creamy sauce.
  • Add in the cooked pasta and chopped artichokes and stir to fully combine. Taste the mixture and season with a desired amount of kosher salt and pepper.
  • If you do not have an oven-safe skillet, transfer the pasta mixture to an 8-inch by 8-inch baking dish. Otherwise, you can bake the pasta right in the skillet.
  • Top with remaining 1/2 cup of cheese and add to the oven. Bake until the top of the pasta is browned and bubbly, 10-15 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve hot.
  • Note: You can also opt to first cook the pasta in the pan with water, drain and set aside. Then make the recipe as written. This helps cut down on dishes.

Tips for Making the Best Baked Creamy Artichoke Pita Appetizer

  • Use fresh artichokes if possible. Fresh artichokes have a more delicate flavor and texture than canned or frozen artichokes.
  • Trim the artichokes properly. Be sure to remove the tough outer leaves and the sharp thorns from the tips of the artichoke leaves.
  • Steam the artichokes until they are tender. Steaming is the best way to cook artichokes because it helps to preserve their flavor and texture.
  • Use a good quality cream cheese. The cream cheese is one of the main ingredients in this recipe, so it's important to use a good quality brand.
  • Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as parsley, basil, and thyme, will add a lot of flavor to this recipe.
  • Serve the artichoke dip warm. This dip is best served warm, so be sure to reheat it before serving if you are making it ahead of time.
  • Serve the pita bread fresh. The pita bread is the perfect accompaniment to this dip, so be sure to serve it fresh and warm.

Conclusion

This baked creamy artichoke pita appetizer is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for parties or potlucks.

The artichoke dip is creamy and flavorful, and the pita bread is the perfect way to scoop it up.

This recipe is also a great way to use up leftover artichokes.
