Ingredient Substitution Guide

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Remove and discard all the leaves of the artichokes and slice off the fuzzy choke, leaving only the thick, round fleshy bottom of each artichoke. Place the bottoms in a bowl and toss with the lemon juice.

  2. Step 2

    Remove the bottoms from the lemon juice one at a time and with a sharp knife, cut each into slices a half-inch thick. Return the slices to the lemon juice.

  3. Step 3

    Bring a saucepan of water to a boil, add the artichoke slices and simmer about five minutes, to blanch them. Drain and pat them dry.

  4. Step 4

    Trim the stems off the mushrooms and cut the mushrooms into slices a half-inch thick.

  5. Step 5

    Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet. Add the garlic, cook for a few seconds, then add the mushroom and artichoke slices. Cook over medium-high heat about 10 minutes, until the vegetables are lightly browned. Stir in the rosemary and season to taste with salt and pepper.

  6. Step 6

    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, cook the penne until al dente, about seven minutes. Drain well, then add to the skillet with the vegetables. Toss, check seasonings and serve at once with Parmesan cheese.
