- 1 can (14 oz) artichoke hearts, drained and rinsed - 1 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs - 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese - 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish) - 3 cloves garlic, finely minced - 1 teaspoon dried oregano - 1 teaspoon smoked paprika - 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon sea salt - 2 large eggs - Olive oil spray To make crispy garlic Parmesan artichoke hearts, gather your ingredients first. The artichoke hearts are the star. Their tender texture provides a lovely base for the crunch you want. The gluten-free breadcrumbs give a satisfying crisp. I love using gluten-free options to keep this dish open for everyone. Grated Parmesan cheese adds a rich flavor that pairs well with artichokes. The fresh parsley brightens the dish, making it look appealing. Garlic brings a punch of flavor. I prefer fresh garlic for its strong aroma. The dried oregano adds a warm, earthy taste that balances well with the smoked paprika. Smoked paprika gives a hint of sweetness and depth. Black pepper adds a mild heat, while sea salt enhances all the flavors. The eggs act as a glue. They help the breading stick to the artichokes. A light spray of olive oil on top helps them crisp up in the oven. Each ingredient plays a role in creating the perfect crispy garlic Parmesan artichoke hearts. 1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This makes clean-up easy. 2. In a shallow bowl, mix the gluten-free breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, minced garlic, dried oregano, smoked paprika, black pepper, and sea salt. Stir well to combine. 3. In another shallow bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until blended and frothy. 1. Take each artichoke heart and dip it into the egg mixture. Make sure it is fully coated. 2. Next, roll the artichoke in the breadcrumb mixture. Ensure it is covered completely. 3. Place the coated artichoke hearts on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat until all are coated. 1. Bake the artichoke hearts for 20-25 minutes. Watch them closely to prevent burning. 2. After baking, let them cool on the sheet for a few minutes. 3. Garnish the crispy artichokes with chopped fresh parsley. This adds color and flavor. 4. Serve on a stylish platter, arranged in a circle. Pair with a creamy dip for added flavor. To make your artichoke hearts crispy, you need to use olive oil spray. This helps the coating turn golden and crunchy. Spray just enough on top before baking. It makes a big difference! Also, place your baking sheet in the center of the oven. This ensures even heat and perfect browning. When you coat the artichokes, make sure each heart is fully covered in the egg mix. This helps the breadcrumbs stick well. If you do not coat them enough, the crust may become soggy. Take your time and dip each one thoroughly before rolling it in the breadcrumb mix. Adjust the seasoning to your taste. You might want more garlic or a bit more salt. This dish is all about your preference! For dips, I suggest pairing with a creamy garlic aioli or a fresh lemon-tahini sauce. These choices will enhance the flavor and make every bite delightful. {{image_4}} For a twist, try different cheeses. You can use mozzarella or feta cheese instead of Parmesan. This change gives a new flavor and texture. If you want a dairy-free option, try a vegan cheese. Just ensure it melts well. When it comes to breadcrumbs, you can also swap them out. Use crushed cornflakes or ground nuts to keep it gluten-free. These alternatives add crunch and flavor. Want to spice it up? Adding cayenne pepper gives a nice kick. Just a pinch can make a big difference. You can also add other spices like garlic powder for an extra garlic taste. Fresh herbs make a dish pop. Try adding basil or thyme. These herbs brighten the flavor and add freshness. You can mix them into the breadcrumb mix or sprinkle them on top before serving. These crispy delights shine with various dips. Serve them with a creamy garlic aioli or zesty lemon-tahini sauce. Both add more flavor and make them a hit at any gathering. Feeling creative? Use the crispy artichokes as a salad topping. They add crunch and a fun twist to any green salad. Try mixing them into a Caesar salad or a simple greens mix. To store your leftover crispy garlic Parmesan artichoke hearts, let them cool first. Place them in an airtight container. This keeps them fresh and prevents them from drying out. You can store them in the fridge for up to three days. Use a container that fits snugly to avoid excess air. If you want to save these tasty bites for later, freezing is a great option. First, let the artichokes cool completely. Then, lay them out on a baking sheet in a single layer. Freeze them for about an hour. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag. Squeeze out as much air as possible before sealing. They can last up to three months in the freezer. When you're ready to eat, take out the desired amount. Thaw them in the fridge overnight. You can also use the microwave for a quick thaw, but be careful not to overdo it. For reheating, the oven is best. Preheat it to 375°F (190°C). Place the artichoke hearts on a baking sheet. Heat them for about 10-15 minutes. This keeps them crispy. If you use a microwave, the artichokes may turn soft. If you must use it, heat in short bursts. Check often to avoid sogginess. The oven is your best friend for keeping that delightful crunch! Yes, you can use fresh artichoke hearts! Here’s how to prepare them: - Start with whole artichokes. - Trim the leaves until you reach the tender heart. - Boil or steam them until soft, about 20-30 minutes. - Let them cool, then remove the fuzzy choke. - Cut the hearts into quarters and follow the same coating steps as with canned artichokes. To make Crispy Garlic Parmesan Artichoke Hearts vegan, use substitutes for eggs. - You can use ground flaxseed mixed with water. - Mix 1 tablespoon of flaxseed with 2.5 tablespoons of water. - Let this sit for 5 minutes until it thickens. - Use this mixture to coat the artichokes instead of eggs. These crispy bites pair well with many dishes and dips. - Serve with a creamy garlic aioli for a rich dip. - Try a zesty lemon-tahini sauce for a fresh flavor. - You can also serve them alongside a simple salad or pasta for a full meal. - Arrange them on a platter for a beautiful presentation!

Ingredients
  

1 can (14 oz) artichoke hearts, drained and rinsed

1 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

3 cloves garlic, finely minced

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon smoked paprika (for a touch of sweetness)

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

2 large eggs

1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)

Olive oil spray

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    In a shallow bowl, combine the gluten-free breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, dried oregano, smoked paprika, black pepper, and sea salt. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly mixed.

      In another shallow bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together until completely blended and slightly frothy.

        Take each artichoke heart and immerse it in the egg mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated. Next, roll it in the breadcrumb mixture until it is entirely covered. Place each coated artichoke heart on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat this process until all the artichoke hearts are coated.

          Once all coated artichoke hearts are neatly arranged on the baking sheet, lightly spray the tops with olive oil to encourage a crispy texture during baking.

            Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. Keep an eye on them during the baking process to ensure they become beautifully golden brown without burning.

              Once the baking time is complete, remove the artichoke hearts from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. Prior to serving, garnish the crispy delights with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
