Best 7 Warm Marinated Artichoke Hearts With Olives And Feta Recipes

WARM FETA DIP WITH ARTICHOKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the artichoke hearts, feta, mayonnaise, Parmesan, pimientos and garlic until thoroughly combined. Transfer the mixture to a small casserole or glass pie plate and bake, uncovered, for 20 to 25 minutes, or until lightly browned. To serve, place the dish on a larger platter and surround with pita chips.

ARTICHOKE AND FETA TARTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Blend cream and 2 ounces feta in a food processor until smooth; season with salt and pepper.
• If using 14-ounce package of puff pastry, cut in half and roll out each half on a lightly floured surface into a 16x10" rectangle. (If using 17.3-ounce package, use 1 sheet of pastry for each tart.) Transfer each piece of pastry to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Using a paring knife, lightly score pastry (do not cut all the way through), leaving a 1" border.
• Spread feta mixture over pastry, dividing evenly and staying within border. Arrange artichoke hearts over feta mixture and crumble remaining 2 ounces feta over; drizzle with oil. Brush pastry border with egg.
• Bake tart until pastry is puffed and beginning to brown, 10-15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F and continue to bake until pastry is deep golden brown and cooked through, 20-25 minutes longer. Serve warm or at room temperature.
• Do Ahead
• Tart can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
• Variations:
• The feta and puff pastry in this tart pair well with any number of toppings. In place of the artichokes, try:
• Red Pepper + Olive: Scatter feta cream with jarred roasted red peppers, black olives, and chopped fresh rosemary, then bake. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil.
• Asparagus + Egg: Top cheese with asparagus that's been halved lengthwise. Once out of the oven, slide on a few fried eggs.
• Smoked Salmon + Scallion: Bake tart with feta only. When slightly cooled, add smoked salmon and sliced scallions.

WARM MARINATED ARTICHOKE HEARTS WITH OLIVES AND FETA

Steps:

• 1. Heat 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium heat for 3 minutes. Add 1 tbsp oil and heat until shimmering. Add artichokes and 1/2 tsp salt and cook until spotty brown, 7 to 9 minutes. Stir in thyme sprigs, lemon zest, garlic, fennel seeds, and pepper flakes and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• 2. Stir in olives and remaining oil. Reduce heat to low and cook until flavors meld and mixture is heated through, about 20 minutes.
• 3. Discard thyme sprigs and lemon zest, if desired. Gently stir in feta and lemon juice and season with salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with parsley.

ARTICHOKE HEARTS IN LEMON-PARSLEY SAUCE

Steps:

• If using fresh artichokes, trim away the tough outer leaves and remove the choke. Bring a large saucepan three-fourths full of water to a boil. Drain the artichokes, add them to the boiling water along with the lemon half, and parboil for 5 minutes. Drain and set aside. (There is no need to parboil frozen artichoke hearts).
• If using salt-packed capers, soak in water to cover for 5 minutes, then drain and pat dry. If using brine-packed capers, rinse under cold running water, then drain and pat dry. Set the artichokes and the capers aside.
• In a saute or deep frying pan, heat 2 Tb of olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the onions and saute lightly until softened and golden, 5-6 minutes. Add the garlic, parsley, and artichokes, and cook, tossing every so often and adding a little more oil if the artichokes begin to scorch, until they are fragrant and lightly golden, about 10 minutes. Season the artichokes to taste with salt and pepper.
• Add 2 more Tb of olive oil, 1 cup of stock, the capers, lemon zest (if using), lemon juice, and the basil. Raise the heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook, uncovered, until the artichokes are tender and the liquid has evaporated to a thickened and flavorful sauce, about 20 minutes. If the liquid is in danger of boiling away before the artichokes are tender, add more stock as needed.
• Transfer to a serving bowl and serve hot or at room temperature.

ARTICHOKE HEARTS IN OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• Cube the onions, potatoes and the carrots (1/4 inch thick).
• Next, cut out artichoke hearts. Here is a great way to do it: http://localfoods.about.com/od/preparationtips/ss/ArtichokeHearts.htm. It has pictures as well. Remember to rub the artichoke heart with lemon to prevent it from turning brown.
• In a pan sweat the onions in olive oil, then add other vegetables (including the artichoke hearts). Add salt and fry in low heat 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Pour water over the vegetables (enough to cover) and let it cook in low heat till the vegetables are all soft (15 minutes).
• Once cooked put the artichoke hearts on a plate and fill the centers with the vegetables. Cover the top with a piece of fresh dill weed.
• Serve cold.

MARINATED ARTICHOKE HEARTS WITH GREEN OLIVES AND MOZZARELLA

Steps:

• Fit a large pot with a steamer rack; add water until it reaches just below rack. Place artichokes in steamer, stem-sides up. (If necessary to fit, trim top third from each with a serrated knife.) Cover and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and steam, adding more water as needed, until the tip of a knife slides in and out of stems easily, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove artichokes; when cool enough to handle, remove leaves and reserve for another use. Scoop out and discard chokes. Cut hearts into halves or quarters.
• Combine oil, peppercorns, thyme sprigs, lemon zest, garlic, and 1 teaspoon kosher salt in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook until bubbles form around edges; remove from heat. Stir in lemon juice, then artichoke hearts; let stand, tossing occasionally, until cool, about 30 minutes. Stir in olives. (Dish can be made to this point and refrigerated in an airtight container up to 3 days; bring to room temperature before serving.)
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Brush cut sides of bread with oil; season with kosher salt and pepper. Place on a baking sheet; toast until golden brown on edges, about 8 minutes.
• Arrange artichoke mixture on a platter with cheese. Garnish with thyme sprigs and flowers, sprinkle with Hawaiian or kosher salt, drizzle generously with oil, and serve with toast.
