We love artichokes. I don't like the mess from the artichoke water and heating the entire kitchen is not something that makes me want to make them often.

This is where the Instant Pot comes in handy.

I can cook four large artichokes in 30-minutes in the Instant Pot. There is no heating up the kitchen, no water to boil. The results are delicious artichokes that have amazing flavor and are cooked to perfection.

We've made this at least five times this summer and the kiddos insist I make them more.

Here's how easy it is:


InstantPot Artichokes Ingredients:

4 large artichokes
1 clove garlic, pressed to release flavor
1/2 cup water
salt and pepper to taste

InstantPot Artichokes Directions:

Pour 1/2 cup water in bottom of InstantPot
Add metal rack to elevate the artichokes
Place garlic clove in water at bottom of InstantPot
Wash and dry the artichokes
Add salt and pepper to artichokes to your taste
place all four artichokes in Instant Pot
Place lid on Instant Pot and use manual setting for 30-minutes
Note: We have had success at 30-minutes but time may vary depending on the size of artichokes.
