Ingredients
- 1 fresh artichoke
- Juice of 1 lemon divided use
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup good-quality mayonnaise I use Kewpie, but Dukes or Hellman’s are good choices as well
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Remove the stem of the artichoke and trim the spiny tips of the leaves. Squeeze half of the lemon onto the cut portions of the artichoke to prevent discoloration.
- Place the trimmed artichoke upside down (for stability) in a microwave-safe bowl and add water. Cover with a lid or plastic wrap and microwave for 7 to 8 minutes. To prevent the leaves from becoming soggy, take care not to overcook. Larger artichokes may need an additional 2 to 3 minutes.
- Remove the artichoke from the microwave and shock with cold water. When cool enough to handle, cut it in half and carefully remove the prickly choke.
- To make the aioli, combine the mayonnaise, garlic, salt, pepper, and 2 teaspoons of the remaining lemon juice in a separate bowl and mix well. Let sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to marry before serving.
- Grill the artichoke in the kitchen with a grill pan or outside on a grill at 350°F. If you are using a grill pan, pour a few tablespoons of olive oil into the pan and grill the artichoke cut-side up over medium heat for about 5 to 7 minutes. Flip the artichoke and grill for an additional 5 to 7 minutes. If you are using an outdoor grill, grill both sides of the artichoke until they develop grill marks.
- Season the artichoke to taste with salt and pepper and serve with the prepared aioli.
