Directions
Garlic Sauteed Artichokes, Artichokes are sauteed in garlic butter before steaming A simple and delicious way to use artichokes!, This is probably a healthier way than I normally make artichokes (boiled to oblivion then dipped in salt and butter) but I think I prefer that method to this one My husband liked this method more though We kept the stem and 1/3 top on, waste not, want not I say We did pull the hairy center out though I cooked it for twice the recommended time and the outer leaves were still a little too tough to eat, but the inside was plenty cooked by that point so I didn’t want to cook it any longer I also used completely chicken stock and no water and 11 garlic gloves instead of 6 since we like extra garlic
