Baked artichoke hearts make one of the easiest side dishes, and they are a delicious way to get your veggies in!
These roasted artichoke hearts are so delicious on their own or tossed into a salad. They’re also a good source of fiber, Vitamin C and Vitamin K!
I realized that I share a lot of my favorite pastas, chicken dishes and baked goods with you, but not near enough of my favorite vegetables. I promise I don’t just eat breads! In fact, these roasted artichoke are just as amazing! I eat them like candy!
I’ve made roasted baby carrots, roasted mushrooms, Italian vegetables and roasted sweet potatoes just to name a few of our favorite sides! Like my other recipes, my vegetable side dishes are quick and easy. My Baked Artichoke recipe is no exception.
I’m always trying to sneak my veggies in in ways I enjoy. One of my favorite local restaurants, Katie’s, has an artichoke salad that I crave. The oven roasted artichoke is so easy to make we’ve been enjoying it as a side dish at home.
Tips
- It’s the perfect accompaniment to chicken, pasta like Lemon Spaghetti, salads and more!
- It’s a dish anyone can make yet it feels so special. As you can see, roasting them makes them so tender!
- Artichoke vegetable is an excellent source of fiber, Vitamin C and Vitamin K, so it’s a dish you can feel good about, too! Of course this easy recipe is dairy free, but you can mix it up with a little fresh grated parmesan, too!
- This recipe serves just two, but is easily doubled, tripled or quadrupled.
With a bite, you’d never know how easy this Baked Artichoke dish is. They’re incredible. Using drained canned artichokes you just drizzle with oil, sprinkle with fresh cracked pepper and roast!
Baked Artichoke Ingredients
- Artichoke Hearts – Easier than roasting whole artichokes.
- Olive Oil – A good quality olive oil gives them a buttery melt-in-your-mouth flavor that will make you forget you’re eating veggies! You can also use melted butter if you prefer.
- Salt and Pepper T0 season. I like to use fresh cracked salt and pepper for nice, thick flakes.
Variations
- Sprinkle on dried herbs
- Squeeze a little fresh lemon juice over them just before baking
- Sprinkle with minced garlic before baking

do you just cook the hearts or the whole artichoke?
I like to just do the hearts.
