He couldn't eat this. His complaint: soggy, tasteless, and unappetizing.
An alternate way to prepare

If you like your artichokes a bit more on the crunchy side, try this: 1) After lightly soaking in lemon juice, drain and pat very dry. 2) Cook other ingredients seperate from the artichokes per her recipe. Add garlic and a good amount of salt for more flavor. 3) Remove from pan the topping mix you just cooked by placing topping into a side bowl. 4) Add a very small amount of olive oil in same frying pan, and add artichoke bottoms 5) Although the cooking surface does not come in contact with the inside "cup" portion of the artichokes, let them spend equal time frying on top and bottom. A small amount of charring may result, but it just adds to the flavor. 6) For extra flavor, add crushed crutons and parm cheese in the cup part of the artichoke. After it begins to adhere and melt, you can flip it and create a little crust as the chesse cooks directly on the pan. Don't leave it for more than a few seconds! 7) Remove and add toppings.
good

I disagree. I made these and they were spectacularly good.
Stale and cheap tasting

Tasted canned. Cooking the canned chokes made them totally disintegrate. I couldn't bring myself to serve this. It went directly down the sink.

This was a great side dish. Everyone loved it and it tasted like I spent hours making it.
Expected them to have more flavor

They were dull and boring. Won't make again.
Better as a dip than a side dish.

Canned artichokes with lemon juice cooked for so long invitably turn very soft and mushy. Better as a dip than a side dish.
very very good

These were OK

I love artichokes any way they are prepared. However the tomato and seasoning overpowered them. I think I prefer a simpler preparation to let the artichoke flavor come forward. Where in this recipe does it say that these are "crispy"? It's been referred to several times in the reviews. Maybe I missed something? Crispy artichokes sound like something at Applebees- perhaps not bad, but something I'd rather not eat.
These were yummy

These were a bit slimy. Not exactly appetizing.

The artichokes came out perfectly sauteed to perfection. That was redundant, but these artichokes were good! I used frozen.
Disintegrated

Soggy and leaden. NOT CRISPY AT ALL. What a mistake.

Not crispy enough

I thought these would crisp up better. My family likes them crispy, not soggy.
My family loved this!

Flavorful, and the dish has a great appearance. Hint: Sauteeing isn't a cooking method to crisp things up. You a lot of very hot oil for a crisp effect. Hope this helps.
Too soft

I used artichoke tops instead of bottoms. Tops are tender and sweet whereas the bottoms are large and old. It tasted fresh and tops are so much cheaper. Artichoke tops are found in the fresh produce section.
The spices are delish in this dish!

The only thing I did different than the recipe says is I added only one tsp. of Italian seasoning. I thought it might be too spicy if I went with the whole amount. (Just personal preference) They were great! The flavor is awesome! Make sure you salt and pepper them when they are finished cooking, like the recipe suggests, because then you can add just the right amount of salt and/or pepper for your taste.
Too soft

The taste was awesome, and mine didn't get mushy like some other reviewers have mentioned. Artichokes are pretty durable little veggies.
This has great taste!!!

I used frozen artichokes since I don't like the consistency of canned or bottled. They came out good and tasted great! Hint: Sauteeing is not a cooking method meant to make food crispy.
not mushy to me!

I don't really like my artichoke bottoms crispy unless I am frying them with breading. This was really good!
Veggies turned to mush

They were already pretty soft right out of the can, but the cooking (10 minutes!) did them in.
Needed more flavor

Plus they did get really, really soft. We like our artichokes a bit crisper.

They got too soft

They retained their shape but all the cooking of already-cooked artichokes made them very, very mushy. If you make this dish you might want to cut way down on the cooking time and increase the seasoning quite a bit.
fantastic side dish!
