This is a recipe that I don't have exact measurements for. It was a last minute what can I make today thought. I had a regular size can of artichoke hearts and my hubby really likes artichokes so I proceeded to make some artichoke pesto to toss with some pasta I had bought recently.
I placed my drained artichoke hearts in my food processor, added about 1/2 to 3/4 cup oil and garlic. Pulsed several minutes until artichoke hearts were in small pieces. If necessary add a little more oil. I then added parsley, salt and pepper and lemon juice and pulsed a bit more. Using a large spoon I added the cheese to the mixture.
Note: Or you can use the short cut recipe that I did today for dinner. I purchased a 10 oz. jar of Lemon Artichoke pesto (T.j. Maxx) and added 1 can chicken broth to it. Pour mixture over boneless chicken breasts in a crockpot set on low and cook approximately 4 to 6 hours. Serve over pasta.
Made from Scratch recipe:
Ingredients: I can artichoke hearts drained
1/2 to 3/4 cup canola oil
1 tsp. dried parsley
2 cloves garlic
salt to taste
pepper
lemon juice( I used the juice of one lemon) approx. 1 to 2 T. Note: You can add more depending on your taste. I like a hint of lemon.
1/4 cup Asiago or Romano cheese
In a food processor place drained artichoke hearts, canola oil, parsley,garlic. Pulse until chopped in small pieces. Add lemon juice, pulse again. Add salt, pepper and cheese and pulse once more.
