-------- ------------ --------------------------------

24 baby artichokes -- trimmed

juice of 1 large lemon

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

6 sage leaves or 6 thyme sprigs

2 strips lemon zest

salt and freshly milled pepper

1 plump clove garlic -- slivered

1 bay leaf

1 tablespoon chopped thyme or parsley

 

Drop the finished artichokes into a bowl with the lemon juice and water to

cover.

 

Warm half the oil with the sage and lemon zest in a medium saute pan with a

tight-fitting lid. Add the artichokes with 2 1/2 cups of the lemon water, 1/2

teaspoon of salt, garlic, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat,

cover, and simmer until the artichokes are tender, about 15 to 20 minutes.

Scoop them into a bowl, then reduce the remaining liquid until about 1/2 cup

remains. Pour it over the artichokes and drizzle the remaining oil over the

top. Garnish with a little pepper and the chopped herb.
