Super-fast, Super-Easy, Microwave Artichokes
“Well, I’m never dirtying up another pot cooking artichokes. I put two
in a pyrex bowl, followed the directions below. They were wonderful.
Certainly as good as any made it a pot of water. And only 8 minutes
plus 5 minutes rest time. Great!!! I see lots of artichokes in my
future when they are this easy.” –Terry P.

Microwave on high for approximately 4 minutes per artichoke. Remove from oven and let set in covered dish for 5 minutes. Serve with herb butter and lemon juice.
