Artichoke Granita

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 pound frozen artichoke hearts, thawed
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 1/4 cup Marsala wine
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1/3 cup Panko
• 1/3 cup grated Parmesan
• 2 good sized shallots

PREPARATION

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

• Warm the olive oil in a heavy bottom skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.

• Add the artichoke hearts, parsley, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes and cook until the artichoke hearts are starting to brown at the edges, about 3 minutes.

• Add the chicken broth and wine and simmer for 3 minutes. Transfer the artichoke mixture to a 2-quart baking dish.

• Melt the butter in the same skillet used to cook the artichokes.

• In a small bowl mix the melted butter with the bread crumbs. Stir in the Parmesan and top the artichokes with the bread crumbs.

• Bake until the top is golden, about 10 minutes.
