Marinated Artichoke Hearts
March 27, 2024
One of nature’s most attractive vegetables, at least in our humble opinion, artichokes are totally underrated in the home kitchen. Besides containing nutrients like fiber, vitamin C, folate, and vitamin K, they’re also a master at elevating basic recipes. Artichoke hearts are the tender, fleshy bulbs at the very center of the artichoke flower whose tender leaves are often used to make spinach artichoke dip.
With a nutty, earthy flavor that sits somewhere between Brussels sprouts and squash, artichoke hearts are especially delicious when marinated in oil, with copious herbs and spices. The addition of these elements removes the slight bitterness naturally found in the plant, turning them into soft, buttery little nuggets of joy. To make this simple marinated artichoke hearts recipe at home, we used canned veggies and brought in our culinary powerhouse, Primal Kitchen Pure Avocado Oil, which has a neutral taste that won’t overpower the tender hearts.

Marinated artichoke hearts add a zesty Mediterranean flavor to pizzas, pasta dishes, game day charcuterie boards, and more. We marinated our canned artichoke hearts in pure avocado oil for a more neutral taste that plays up the garlic and other herbs. Try dicing them on bruschetta or tossing them into a Greek salad!
