Grilled Artichokes from myrecipes.com
2 artichokes
1 lemon
Olive oil
Salt & Pepper
Plunge the artichokes in cold water repeatedly to clean them. Trim the stem and cut about 1" off of the top of the artichoke. Slice off the bottom loose layer of leaves. Using kitchen shears, trim about 1/4" off of the top of the remaining outer leaves. Slice the artichokes in half.
Slice the lemon and drop into a pot of water to boil. Using a steamer basket, steam the artichokes for 15-20 minutes, until the stem is tender. Remove from the basket and let the cool slightly. Use a spoon to remove the "choke." Brush with olive oil and season with salt & pepper before grilling them. Grill for 5-7 min on medium heat.
