Boiled then broiled Artichoke

1. Bring a pot of water to a medium boil while getting ingredients ready.
2. Set aside pepper, Oil, garlic powder, and salt
3. Roughly chop up the herb of your choice
4. cut a lemon in half and set aside 

Cut off the stem to about one inch in length and trim off the small outer leaves. Next you're going to want to cut off all the points of the bigger leaves, cutting off about 1/4th of the top of the artichoke.

Once artichoke is prepped and the water is at a mid boil add your artichokes in. Cook your artichokes for around 30 minutes, flipping over for at least 10 minutes. To verify your artichokes are fully cooked you should be able to easily pull out an artichoke leaf with little effort. Remove and let cool down once you've made sure it is cooked. You can enjoy the artichokes at this step or keep reading for how to add flavor by broiling.

1. Once your artichoke has cooled off cut it in half from the side carefully, do not apply too much pressure as you do not want leaves to start to fall off.
2. Take out all of the purple leaves with your fingers
3. Scrape off the hairs with a spoon

1. Turn oven onto low broil
2. Season the inside of the artichoke with salt, pepper to your liking
3. lightly sprinkle garlic powder
4. Apply herbs evenly
5. Sprinkle with oil and lemon

Insert your artichokes on an oven safe dish. Broil for around 6 minutes but watch them the entire time. You want to brown the artichokes, if you see any burning take them out and turn off the oven. Once the artichokes are browned to your liking take them out and enjoy!
