- Mix first 4 ingredients and allow to chill while preparing artichokes. Cut off upper 1/4 of artichoke; remove tough outside leaves, trim stems.
- Optional: With scissors, snip off the prickly tips from all leaves.
- Rinse artichokes well and wrap in microwave-safe plastic wrap. Pierce plastic wrap with a fork in several places to allow seam to escape while cooking. Cook artichokes on HIGH in the microwave as follows:
- 2 artichokes: about 8 to 10 minutes; 4 artichokes: about 12 to 14 minutes.
- The artichoke is tender when you can pierce bottom with a toothpick or fork. Makes enough sauce for 4 artichokes. Serves 2 or 4.
