Artichoke Tea Sandwiches Recipes

GRILLED SPINACH-ARTICHOKE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Combine half of the onion, the vinegar and a pinch of salt in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until hot; set aside.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining onion and cook, stirring, 3 minutes. Add the artichokes and heat through, 4 minutes. Stir in half of the spinach and cook until wilted, 2 more minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the asiago, goat cheese, mayonnaise and the remaining spinach.
• Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Sandwich the spinach-artichoke mixture between the bread slices. Brush the sandwiches with olive oil and add to the grill pan. Grill 3 minutes per side. Let rest 2 minutes; cut in half.
• Drain the reserved onion. Drizzle with olive oil, then add the tomatoes, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste; toss. Serve with the sandwiches.

ARTICHOKE AND SALAMI SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Dividing evenly, top bread with Artichoke-Basil Spread; layer 4 of the slices with fontina cheese, spinach, and salami. Assemble sandwiches, and serve.

ARTICHOKE TEA SANDWICHES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together the artichokes, mayonnaise, onion powder, garlic powder, dried parsley, and cayenne. Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide mixture evenly among 10 slices of bread, top each with remaining bread slices and cut off crusts with a serrated edge knife. Cut each sandwich diagonally to create two triangles.
• Transfer to a platter and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least four hours or overnight to soften before serving.

ARTICHOKE DIP BREAKFAST SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with nonstick spray and line with parchment, leaving the sides overhanging. Spray parchment.
• In a large bowl, whisk to combine the eggs, milk, salt and pepper. Pour into the prepared dish and bake until eggs are set, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, stir to combine the cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Fold in the parmesan cheese, spinach and artichokes and season with salt and pepper.
• Use a serrated knife to cut the rolls in half horizontally, then place bottom half in a 9x13 baking dish. Top the bread with the spinach artichoke dip, then shredded mozzarella. Turn the eggs out of the pan on top of the cheese, then top with the ham. Place the top half of the bread over the ham and brush with melted butter.
• Bake until the cheeses are melted and the tops are golden, about 20-25 minutes. Cut the bread into sandwiches and serve.

FRIED ARTICHOKE SANDWICH

Steps:

• To make the cabbage slaw, combine the purple cabbage with 1 tablespoon of the jalapeño ranch and all the lime juice in a mixing bowl. Set aside in the fridge while you prepare the fried artichokes.
• To make the fried artichokes, in a deep fryer or in a large heavy- bottom pot with a thermometer attached heat the fryer oil to 360°F. If using a pot, it should be around a third full of oil. Set aside a large baking sheet with a wire rack on top to place the fried artichokes on. Do not rest them on paper towels as they will become soggy.
• Drain the artichoke hearts from the can or jar and cut them in half if they're whole. Gently squeeze out any excess water from the artichoke pieces by patting between paper towels or with a clean tea towel so that the artichokes aren't super wet.
• To a large mixing bowl, add ½ cup of the gluten-free flour. In another large mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining ¾ cup of the flour, the cornstarch, sea salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne.
• Once the oil is to temperature, add 1 cup of the club soda to the flour mixture to start and gently whisk until combined. Add more club soda as needed to ensure the batter is loose enough to dip and dredge the artichokes but thick enough that it sticks and doesn't run right off too much. (The amount of liquid varies, as I find gluten-free flours to have varying hydration levels.) Use one hand to coat 4 or 5 artichoke halves in the flour dredge and then coat one piece at a time in the liquid batter. Lift each piece from the batter and let the excess drip off. Quickly place the battered artichokes directly in the hot oil and fry the first batch for 4 to 6 minutes, until crispy and golden brown.
• Use a slotted spoon or a pair of tongs to place the artichokes onto the wire rack, and continue frying in batches.
• To make the sandwiches, lightly toast the buns. Spread the remain- ing jalapeño ranch on the inside of the top and bottom buns. Add the purple cabbage slaw to the bottom bun and top with pickles, 4 or 5 fried artichoke pieces, and the top bun.

TOASTED ARTICHOKE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute the artichokes, pepper and onion in oil until tender; stir in cheese. Remove from the heat., In a food processor, combine mayonnaise and tomatoes; cover and process until finely chopped., Spread four bread slices with half of the mayonnaise mixture; layer with a spinach leaf, artichoke mixture and remaining spinach. Spread remaining bread with mayonnaise mixture; place on top. Butter outsides of sandwiches., On a griddle, toast sandwiches for 2-3 minutes on each side or until bread is lightly browned.
