Marinated Artichoke With Zucchini And Onion Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Toss the artichokes and marinade, zucchini, lemon wedges, garlic, shallot, thyme, 1 tablespoon olive oil, the red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Bake until the vegetables are tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pat the fish dry with a paper towel and brush with the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Remove the baking dish from the oven and stir the mixture. Stir in the bulgur and 1 1/4 cups water. Nestle the fish fillets skin-side down in the vegetables and bulgur. Return to the oven and bake until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the bulgur is tender, about 12 minutes.
• Transfer the fish to plates. Season the bulgur mixture with salt and pepper, if needed. Add to the plates. Top with the chives.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce on the bottom of a large baking dish.
• Layer the ingredients in the baking dish, ending with a layer of zucchini topped by a layer of cheese.
• Here are the exact layers I used, bottom to top: 1/3 of the zucchini, 1/2 of the onion, 1/2 artichoke hearts, 1/3 cheese, 1/2 tomato sauce, seasonings, 1/3 zucchini, 1/2 onion, 1/2 artichoke hearts, 1/3 cheese, 1/2 tomato sauce, seasonings, 1/3 zucchini, 1/3 cheese.
• Cover and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until zucchini is cooked through.
• If necessary, remove lid and cook a few more minutes to brown cheese.

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with cold water and squeeze 3 of the lemons into it (this is known as acidulated water). Keep it off the heat for now. The cut artichoke hearts have to head straight into the lemon water to keep them from browning.
• Trim the artichokes: Lay an artichoke on its side and trim the brown woody tip of the stem. Using a very sharp or serrated knife, cut the top one-third of the thorny artichoke leaves off, leaving a flattened top. Use your hands to tear off the toughest outermost leaves from around the bottom of the artichoke, leaving most of the leaves untouched. Lay the artichoke on the board again and this time cut it in half lengthwise, from stem to top. Using a paring knife or a peeler, carefully peel off the outermost layer of the stem. Use a spoon to scrape away the inedible furry choke in the center of the artichoke. Voila-you have an artichoke heart! Quick, put it in the acidulated water. Repeat to trim the rest of the artichokes.
• Poach the artichokes: Add more water to the pot if needed to cover the artichokes. Season the water with 3 tablespoons salt. Place the pot over medium-low heat and bring the water to a simmer. Poach the artichokes for about 15 minutes, or until they're easily pierced with the tip of a knife. Drain the artichokes. Transfer them to a large bowl and set aside.
• Marinate the artichokes: In a large saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the garlic halves cut-side down and sear them until lightly golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the thyme and tarragon. Squeeze the remaining 3 lemons into the pan and throw in the squeezed lemon halves as well. Add the wine and simmer on high heat until it has reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 4 cups olive oil and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring the marinade to a boil, then turn off the heat.
• Carefully pour the hot marinade over the artichokes and stir to combine. Transfer the artichokes and marinade to mason jars with lids or airtight containers and refrigerate. Marinate for at least 1 hour, but ideally overnight, before serving. Store them in the refrigerator for up to 10 days.

Steps:

• Lightly saute the zucchini/squash and onion using olive oil no calorie spray.
• Mix with jar of marinated artichoke hearts.
• Cool for 15 minutes.
• Add the liquid from the jar.
• Season with salt and pepper if desired.
• Refrigerate for a min of 4 hours.

Steps:

• Slice zucchini thinly add drained and quartered artichokes.
• Blend together dressing ingredients in blender for 30 seconds.
• Pour over zucchini and artichokes marinate for 1 hour.
• Tear romaine into bite size pieces, add parsley and mushrooms. Just before serving add artichokes and zucchini. Toss.

Steps:

• Combine lemon juice, extra-virgin olive oil, salt, black pepper, Italian seasoning, and garlic in a sealable plastic container.
• Seal the container and shake to emulsify the mixture.
• Remove the lid and add artichoke hearts. Reseal the lid and continue shaking the container until the artichoke hearts are completely coated.
