  • Artichoke hearts: Canned, frozen: You can use fresh artichokes but those will require cleaning, trimming, and par cooking. For this recipe, I am using canned artichoke hearts.
  • Goat cheese: This is the main base for the filling. If for some reason goat cheese is not an option, you can substitute it with feta, cheddar, or even a ricotta/parmesan mixture.
  • Egg: Lightly whisked eggs give the filling a lighter and airier texture.
  • Seasoning/herbs: For this recipe, I am using chives and dried oregano. Any fresh or dried herb can be used to the additional flavor.

How to Make Stuffed Artichoke Hearts – Step by Step 

Step 1: Preparing the Artichokes

Place the artichoke hearts on a baking dish. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with dried herbs, like oregano, marjoram, or thyme.

Step2: Preparing the Goat Cheese Filling

In a medium bowl break the goat cheese with a fork, season with the dry herbs, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Crack the egg, and separate the egg white in another bowl. Add the yolk to the cheese mixture. Whisk with a same fork until yolk and cheese are fully combined.

Whip the egg white with the pinch of salt until soft peaks. Gradually, fold the egg whites with the goat cheese mixture.

Step 3: Filling the Artichoke

Spoon the goat cheese filling into artichoke hearts and smooth with a knife or a spatula. Do not overfill. The mixture will expand and rise a bit thanks to the eggs.

Step 4: Baking the Artichoke Hearts

Preheat the oven to 350°F and pop in the baking dish. Bake for 20-30 minutes until the cheese filling is puffed and slightly browned.

Ways to serve Goat Cheese Stuffed Artichokes
