Ingredients
- 4 large artichokes
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 Tablespoon minced garlic
- lemon juice
Instructions
- Rinse artichokes under running water.
- Slice artichoke tops off, trim tip of leaves and stem.
- Rub freshly cut ends of artichoke with lemon juice (optional).
- In a large stockpot add 2-3 inches of water and place in a steamer basket. Place artichokes in the basket. Bring water to a boil, then simmer with lid on the stockpot. Steam for about 20 minutes or until the leaves can be removed easily and the bottom pieces easily.
- Remove from pan and cool.
- Cut artichokes in half lengthwise and with a spoon scoop out the choke (fuzzy purple center).
- In a small bowl whisk together balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, water, olive oil and garlic. Place in a ziploc large plastic bag with the sliced artichokes.
- Marinade for a minimum of 2 hours. I usually marinade overnight.
- To grill turn gas grill on medium heat. Lightly grease griddle grates. Place cut side on grates and cook for 5-7 minutes. Turn over and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Add remaining marinade in the center of each artichoke.

Notes
