Ingredients
- 2 (14.5-ounce) cans water-packed artichoke bottoms, drained and rinsed
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (about 1/2 a lemon)
- 1 medium sweet onion, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 6 plum tomatoes, seeded and diced
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons fresh basil leaves, shredded
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
In a bowl, combine and toss drained and rinsed artichoke bottoms with lemon juice. Set aside.
In a large frying pan over medium heat, sweat onions in oil until translucent. Add tomatoes and cook until heated through, about 1 minute. Stir in Italian seasoning and shredded basil leaves. Add in artichoke bottoms with lemon juice and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover pan and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 10 minutes.
To serve, remove artichoke bottoms and place on serving plate so the hollow side is up. Fill with tomato-onion mixture.

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.
