Grilled Artichoke Green Garlic And Goat Cheese Bruschetta Recipes

Steps:

• Thinly slice 1 garlic clove, and set aside. Gently crush remaining clove, and rub over one side of each of the bread slices. Brush both sides of bread with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Toast slices on a grill or in a skillet over medium-high heat until golden and crisp on both sides. Transfer to a serving platter, and set aside.
• Heat remaining tablespoon olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add reserved garlic and artichoke hearts. Saute until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Set aside.
• Season ricotta cheese with salt and pepper; spread about 2 tablespoons of mixture on each slice of bread. Top with sauteed garlic and artichokes. Season again with salt and pepper. Garnish with shaved Parmesan cheese, and drizzle with olive oil.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Slice the baguette at an angle 1/2-inch-thick. Brush both sides of the bread with olive oil and sprinkle one side with salt and pepper. Bake for 10 minutes, until lightly toasted.

Steps:

• Combine oil, garlic bulbs, and rosemary in a small saucepan; bring to a simmer over medium. Reduce heat to low; simmer until garlic is golden, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool.
• Squeeze 2 lemon halves into a large bowl of water; add rinds. Working with 1 artichoke at a time, remove tough outer leaves closest to stem end, then trim pointy tips of remaining outer leaves with kitchen shears. With a serrated knife, cut off top 1 inch; with a paring knife, trim and peel stem. (Transfer to lemon water as you work to prevent discoloration.)
• Set a steamer basket in a large pot; add enough water to reach just below basket and bring to a boil. Squeeze remaining 2 lemon halves into pot. Add artichokes, season with salt, and cover. Steam until hearts are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer to a plate; let stand until cool enough to handle, then cut in half lengthwise and scoop out and discard fuzzy chokes.
• Strain infused oil; discard rosemary. Mash garlic bulbs into a paste and stir into goat cheese with 1/4 cup infused oil, green garlic tops, and red-pepper flakes. Season with salt.
• Heat grill to high. Brush artichokes with infused oil; season with salt. Grill, brushing with more oil and turning a few times, until charred in places, 8 to 10 minutes. Grill bread, turning once, until charred in places, 1 to 2 minutes. Lightly brush bread with infused oil.
• Remove artichoke leaves from bottoms; cut bottoms into slices and reserve leaves for eating separately. Slather grilled bread with goat-cheese mixture and top with sliced artichokes. Drizzle with more infused oil, sprinkle with more red-pepper flakes and green garlic tops, and serve.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, bring vinegar to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced to 3 tablespoons, 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat. Meanwhile, combine tomatoes, shallot, basil, 2 teaspoons olive oil and garlic. Cover and refrigerate until serving., Brush remaining oil over both sides of baguette slices. Grill, uncovered, over medium heat until golden brown on both sides., Top toasts with tomato mixture. Drizzle with balsamic syrup; sprinkle with sea salt and Parmesan. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat grill. Brush each slice of bread with the garlic oil. Grill, oil-side-down until lightly golden brown. Turn each slice over and top with 2 tablespoons of Monterey Jack, 1-ounce of goat cheese, black pepper and oregano. Grill until cheese just begins to melt.

Steps:

• Heat grill. Drizzle garlic with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place cut side down on a large piece of aluminum foil, and place on grill. Cook until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Turn garlic, and fold foil to enclose tightly.
• Continue cooking until cloves are soft, 15 to 20 minutes, checking often and turning to prevent burning. Remove from grill; let cool slightly. Remove from foil, and place on a serving platter.

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high; lightly oil grates. In a large bowl, toss tomatoes with 1 tablespoon oil; season generously with salt and pepper. Arrange tomatoes on grill, cut sides down first. Cover and grill until soft and charred, 5 to 10 minutes per side. With a metal spatula, return tomatoes to bowl. When cool enough to handle, use kitchen shears to snip tomatoes into smaller pieces.
• To tomatoes, add garlic, vinegar, and red-pepper flakes; season with more salt and pepper.
• Reduce heat to medium. Brush bread with remaining oil; grill on both sides until beginning to char, about 2 minutes per side. Cut bread slices in half; divide tomato mixture evenly over each. Top with basil and serve.

Steps:

• Bring large pot of water to boil. Add 2 tablespoons lemon juice to water. Add artichokes and cook until tender, about 25 minutes. Drain well. Cool completely. Using small spoon and keeping artichokes intact, carefully remove tiny center leaves and chokes.
• Mix goat cheese, cream, 2 teaspoons thyme and garlic in small bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon mixture into center of artichokes, dividing equally. Place each artichoke in center of square piece of foil large enough to cover artichoke completely. Gather foil up around artichoke, twisting top of foil to secure. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Refrigerate.)
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Place artichokes on baking sheet and bake until heated through, about 15 minutes. Melt butter in heavy small skillet. Add olive oil and remaining 6 tablespoons lemon juice and bring to simmer. Remove from heat and stir in remaining 1 teaspoon thyme. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Unwrap artichokes. Place each in center of plate. Drizzle butter mixture around each and serve.

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high direct heat.
• Trim sharp tips from artichokes. Cut artichokes in half lengthwise. Brush both sides of artichokes w/ 1 tbsp olive oil.
• Place artichokes on grill and grill for about 5 minutes on each side or until they are slightly charred. Remove from grill.
• Tear off 4 12" x 12" pieces of aluminum foil. Place each artichoke half on 1 square of foil, cut side up.
• Sprinkle garlic and lemon zest evenly over artichokes. Drizzle with melted butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Wrap foil edges up around artichoke halves but don't close completely. Add 1 tbsp water to each packet. Close foil packet. Grill over indirect heat for 35-45 minutes or until tender.
• Serve w/ additional melted butter for dipping, if desired.

Steps:

• Fill a large bowl with cold water. Squeeze the juice from one lemon wedge into the water. Trim the tops from the artichokes, then cut in half lengthwise, and place halves into the bowl of lemon water to prevent them from turning brown.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
• Add artichokes to boiling water, and cook for about 15 minutes. Drain. Squeeze the remaining lemon wedges into a medium bowl. Stir in the olive oil and garlic, and season with salt and pepper.
• Brush the artichokes with a coating of the garlic dip, and place them on the preheated grill. Grill the artichokes for 5 to 10 minutes, basting with dip and turning frequently, until the tips are a little charred. Serve immediately with the remaining dip.

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. Brush 1 side of bread slices with oil. On ungreased cookie sheet, place bread, oil sides down. In medium bowl, mix remaining ingredients. Spread artichoke mixture over bread slices.
• Place slices, oil sides down, on grill (remove from cookie sheet). Cover grill; cook over low heat 4 to 5 minutes or until bottoms are golden brown and topping is hot. Cut slices in half.
