Notes
- f using frozen artichokes, allow them to thaw completely before breading. Do not cook the artichokes first.
- Artichokes canned in water should be drained, rinsed, and dried with a paper or kitchen towel.
- Whole artichoke hearts require additional cooking time in the air fryer or oven.
- When air frying, cook in a single layer in/on the air fryer pan. Do not crowd the pan (leave a little space between each piece).
- Choose your favorite dipping sauce, and garnish with fresh herbs.
- Serve with fresh lemon wedges for additional flavor.
- Use gluten-free bread or bread crumbs for a gluten-free option.
