Ingredients

• 1 can Artichoke hearts
• 3 tbsp Olive oil
• 1/2 Lemon
• 1 tsp Dried oregano
• 1 clove Garlic

Steps

1. Drain the artichoke hearts and pat them very dry with paper towels. Dry artichokes absorb the marinade instead of diluting it.
2. Halve any large hearts so every piece is bite-size.
3. Grate the garlic on a microplane, or mince it superfine, so it melts into the oil rather than sitting in raw chunks.
4. Whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt in a bowl.
5. Toss the artichokes in the marinade until every piece glistens.
6. Rest at room temperature for at least 10 minutes, 30 is better, tossing once halfway so the flavors soak in evenly.
7. Serve with toothpicks, spooning a little of the extra marinade over the top.
