Sauteed Artichokes in Lemon Garlic Sauce - 10.8g Carbs, 4.4g Fiber, 0.6g Sugar

From: www.meatlessmonday.com

Artichokes originated in the Mediterranean and have been enjoyed
there for centuries. This simple yet sophisticated recipe allows
the full flavor of the artichokes to shine.
Servings: 4

2 artichokes
2 cloves garlic, mashed
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup finely chopped parsley
1 cup white wine
1 Tbsp olive oil

Cut off the artichoke stems to the base and remove the first outer layer
of leaves. Cut the artichokes in half vertically and trim the inner
artichoke leaves one inch from the top.

Bring water to a boil in a double boiler or vegetable steamer. Place
the artichokes, hearts included, in the double boiler or steamer and
cover. Cook for about a 25 minutes, or until leaves are cooked, but
still firm.

Heat oil in a sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and artichokes
and season with salt and pepper. Sauté garlic and artichokes 3-5 minutes,
and add the parsley, wine, and olive oil. Lower heat to medium-low and
simmer about 10 minutes. Taste for seasoning and add more salt to taste.
