Why You’ll Love Marinated Artichokes
This is super easy to make, and you can store them in your fridge and put them on pretty much anything your heart desires. The artichokes are the main character here obvs, but the whipped brie takes it up a notch, and brings that creamy element and it is heaven.
Substitutions
Herbs are super easy to swap out for your favorite ones. You can leave the crushed red peppers out if you aren’t a fan of spice. The whipped brie here is optional, but it gives you an idea of what you can do with your marinated artichokes.

Ingredients
- 6-20 baby artichokes

Directions

- Preheat a skillet for 2 min on medium. Add the olive oil to a skillet and let it heat up for 1 min. Add in the lemon slices. Add the sugar. Let them caramelize for about 3-4 min and flip
- Add in the wine and garlic. Let it reduce by half. Add in the herbs, crushed peppers, soy sauce remaining 1/2 lemon and salt to taste
- Drain the artichokes and mix them with the brining liquid
- Add them to a large mason jar and cover with olive oil
- Marinate for 24 hrs, and keep in the fridge for up to 7 hours
- Whip your brie and cream cheese
- Warm up the desired amount of artichokes and top the whipped brie with it. Enjoy with crusty bread
