Description

Fried artichoke hearts are a crispy, flavorful appetizer made by coating canned artichokes in seasoned breadcrumbs and frying them until golden.

Ingredients
  • 1 can (14 ounces) artichoke hearts (drained)
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese (grated)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Oil (for frying)
Instructions
  1. 1
    Prepare the Coating

    Combine breadcrumbs, grated parmesan cheese and garlic powder. Stir until evenly mixed.

    Tip: Use freshly grated parmesan for a richer flavor.
  2. 2
    Drain and Dry the Artichokes

    Open the can of artichoke hearts, drain them well and pat each heart dry with a paper towel.

    Tip: Drying the artichokes ensures the coating sticks better and prevents oil splattering during frying.
  3. 3
    Heat the Oil

    Pour enough oil into a deep frying pan to submerge the artichoke hearts, then heat them over medium heat until it reaches 180°C (350°F).

    Tip: Use a kitchen thermometer to monitor the oil temperature for even frying.
  4. 4
    Coat the Artichokes

    Roll each artichoke heart in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure the coating sticks. Set them aside on a plate.

    Tip: Coat all the artichokes before frying to avoid delays while the oil is hot.
  5. 5
    Fry the Artichokes

    Carefully place the coated artichoke hearts into the hot oil, frying in small batches for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Use tongs or a slotted spoon to turn them as needed.

    Tip: Avoid overcrowding the pan, as it can lower the oil temperature and result in soggy artichokes.
  6. 6
    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fried artichoke hearts from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

    Tip: Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce for maximum crispiness.
