Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup chopped onion -- yellow or white
1 garlic clove -- minced
14 ounces canned artichoke hearts -- drained and quartered (1 can)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
4 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-low heat. Saute the onion and garlic until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the artichokes and continue to saute for 2 to 3 more minutes. Transfer the mixture to the bowl of a food processor. Add the remaining oil, the lemon juice, and cheese. Season with salt and pepper and pulse until a coarse mixture forms. Do not overmix.

This tangy pesto brings out the subtle flavor of the artichokes with a nice balance of acid from the lemons.
