artichoke pasta in a black panEasy Skillet Artichoke Spaghetti

Of all the vegetables we grow Artichokes are the gold vegetable in this family. We wait in anticipation for the first arrivals, because these are the best, the tenderest and without a choke. Which are perfect for making Artichokes Alla Romana.  Of course the next best thing has to be this Easy Skillet Artichoke Pasta.

This is one veggie that I would slip out of bed in the middle of night, dress in black with a flashlight attached to my head and creep down the street to our communal family garden and fill a bag to overflowing with.

But unfortunately I cannot! We must share!

A simple, fast and delicious Easy Skillet Artichoke and Spaghetti Pasta recipe. Italian never tasted so good, and healthy.

I had never eaten an artichoke before, not until I came to Italy. I just couldn’t get excited about dipping a leave and pulling out the insides.

So when my mother-in-law served up another fast and easy Pasta recipe with sautéed Artichokes and Spaghetti. I knew this Easy Skillet Artichoke and Spaghetti dish was destined to become another of my favourites.

One thing I learned very quickly when I came to Italy was that there certainly is more to Pasta then just a tomato or meat sauce. Pasta with some amazing Olive Oil, spices and whatever veggie is in season, makes one of the best meals ever.

    1. Add the sliced artichokes to a large pan with a little olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt and don’t forget a sprinkle or two of hot pepper flakes.

    Ingredients
     
     

    • 5-6 artichokes
    • 1/4 cup olive oil
    • 2 cloves garlic chopped
    • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
    • hot pepper flakes to taste
    • 1/4 cup water
    • 3 cups cooked spaghetti
    • Freshly grated Pecorino or Parmesan cheese to taste

    Instructions
     

    • In a large bowl squeeze the juice of a lemon. Remove the tough, outer leaves from the artichoke (should be about 4 layers of leaveor until you reach leaves that are pale yellow. Cut in half (when you cut it in half , cut out the choke using a knife it looks almost furry, actually if you get artichokes fresh enough there might not even be a choke), thinly slice the artichoke and place in the bowl of water, stem should be cut from the artichoke, leave about 2-3 inches and clean, then (trim with a knife peeling off the tough outer layer slice the stem and place in bowl, (this keeps them from turning brown). Repeat with remaining artichokes.**
    • In a large pan oil and garlic add drained sliced artichokes, sprinkle with  oregano, salt and hot pepper flakes add water and cook almost covered, until tender and water has evaporated (taste for salt).
    • While artichoke slices are cooking, cook spaghetti in salted boiling water.
    • Add cooked Spaghetti and 1/2 ladle of pasta water to the pan, cook on medium for approximately 1 minute. Serve immediately, top with freshly grated Pecorino or Parmesan Cheese. Enjoy!

    **You can also use frozen artichoke hearts.

          Hi, I was wondering how it would work if I was to use the grilled and marinated artichokes they sell in the store? It has a lot of spice already added to it and I could just add my own twist. I think I’m going to try it! Wish me luck 😊.

          This looks so amazing!! I can’t wait to try it. If I were to make it spicy, what would you recommend? Peppers? Spices?

          This was such a change from our usual pasta dishes, I was a bit nervous about using artichokes but it was much easier than I was expecting.

          Hi Rosemary,
          I’m an artichoke lover too and frequently make veggies with pasta, but never with artichokes. So looking forward to trying this (spring around the corner.) Whenever I’m in Rome I head for a restaurant (Nonna Betta) that does great artichoke dishes – my current favorite is ala parmigiano. Would love to see your take on this. Thanks for your excellent blog.
          Cheers,
          Frank

          Rosemary: I LOVE artichokes, but have never had this dish. Thanks so much for posting this recipe. It is one that I will try this week (assuming I can get fresh artichokes here in the Midwest). Have never grown artichokes, either……..with gardening season right around the corner, I’m going to think about this!

          You are so right! Some of the best pasta recipes I’ve had was a simple mix of good extra virgin olive oil and great vegetables in season. I haven’t done a whole lot with artichokes. I know — that isn’t very Italian of me but I can’t seem to find good artichokes. I’ll have to keep trying. Great recipe, Rosemary! Have a great day.
