Fried Artichoke Hearts with Aioli Dipping Sauce Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by MissAlyssaG

Number Of Ingredients 11

for quick aioli:
1 can whole artichoke hearts
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs (or seasoned Italian breadcrumbs)
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 egg
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 garlic clove, minced
tiny pinch paprika
1/2 lemon, juiced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Drain and rinse the artichoke hearts then pat dry thoroughly with paper towels. In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, cheese, salt and pepper. In another smaller bowl, crack the egg and beat lightly with a fork. Line a baking sheet with tin foil or parchment paper and give a quick spray with non-stick cooking spray. Lightly drench each heart in the egg then cover with the breadcrumbs. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through. While hearts are baking, prepare the sauce. Mix together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, garlic and paprika until smooth. Serve with artichoke hearts.

Tips:

  • Choose the right artichoke hearts: Look for frozen or jarred artichoke hearts that are packed in water, not oil. This will help to prevent them from becoming greasy when fried.
  • Thaw the artichoke hearts properly: If using frozen artichoke hearts, be sure to thaw them completely before frying. This will help them to cook evenly.
  • Use a well-seasoned skillet: A well-seasoned skillet will help to prevent the artichoke hearts from sticking. If you don't have a well-seasoned skillet, you can season it by rubbing it with a little bit of oil and then heating it over medium heat for a few minutes.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: When frying the artichoke hearts, be sure to not overcrowd the skillet. This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from steaming.
  • Cook the artichoke hearts until they are golden brown: Cook the artichoke hearts over medium heat until they are golden brown and crispy. This will take about 5-7 minutes per side.

Conclusion:

Fried artichoke hearts are a delicious and versatile appetizer or side dish. They can be served with a variety of dipping sauces, such as marinara sauce, ranch dressing, or tzatziki sauce. They can also be added to salads, sandwiches, and wraps. With their crispy outer coating and tender, flavorful interior, fried artichoke hearts are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
