I've made this several times since finding this recipe. I'll never do artichokes the way I was taught years ago again... this is THE way to make them now.

Tasty! The only downside is that the leaves are slippery with all that butter and it's hard to get a good grip while you're eating it. But I can deal with it!

This was a nice change of pace for cooking artichokes. Usually I just steam them. They tasted great, but I probably won't use this recipe all the time.

Whoa~ This is fantastic!!! I took some suggestions from other reviewers and added fresh lemon juice at steaming and after. I also added a wee bit of onion to the garlic when sauteeing. This recipe is fab.

I have made these a bunch. I absolutely love them. Even people that don't typically like artichokes like these when I make them. The only thing I do differently is add a little lemon juice while steaming. I serve with garlic lemon butter sauce, because I don't like mayo.

Very good. I steamed them first, then added the butter and browned them a little, then added the garlic (so it wouldn't burn). My husband and I both loved them.

This recipe is really good, although I think steaming and THEN sauteing will lead to a better flavor. I had never thought of steaming the artichokes before-- much easier than boiling! We still served them with a bit of lemon juice for dipping and they were a huge hit at the dinner party.

My DH and I really liked this. I usually just steam our artichokes, but now I have an equally delicious way to prepare! Thanks for the post JJDON!

Can someone tell me how to avoid burning the garlic while sauteing the artichokes? I gave this a try, but ended up with a mess. Suggestions, please!!

I have made these and the grilled artichokes. I said the grilled were the best I've ever had, but I was sooooo wrong. These are outstanding!!!!! Followed the recipe to the letter, wouldn't change a thing, except maybe how many I make. I ate two whole artichokes in one sitting, my nine-year old ate one and a half. Great recipe, thanks!!!

These are awesome. I had HUGE artichokes, so mine took a little longer to steam - otherwise changed nothing. Thanks for the recipe, we'll use it again.

This was fantastic! I did two things differently: 1) I added about another 1/4 cup of water at around 5 minutes left to cook, and 2) I added a very, very small amount of cooking sherry to the pan when I added the second round of water. The artichokes were perfectly tender and wonderful! It is surprising to me that other people say theirs took so much longer to cook!

While delicious (eventually) the artichokes were absolutely NOT done in the recommended time. I just left them to simmer well after we had all finished dinner and checked on them about an HOUR later and they were overdone but at least they were done! Next time I will steam them like I normally do until they are almost done and then quickly sautée them afterwards.
