This Easy Jarred Artichoke Hearts Recipe with Spicy Tomato Sauce is an amazingly tasty and healthy tapas appetizer. The entire dish is made in one pan and takes just about 20 minutes to make. I remember the first time I made this recipe, everyone was instantly in love with it. It´s one of those simple dishes that really packs a ton of flavor and makes for a great starter to any meal. You can even serve this as a side dish next to a Tortilla Paisana for a flavorful and full on Spanish dinner. The hot peppers I used for this recipe are Spanish peppers, which are mild in heat and difficult to find outside of Spain, so use your favorite hot peppers to make this recipe. I do recommend that you don´t go too big on the heat, as the star of the dish are the artichokes.
– Fresh Artichokes vs. Jarred Artichokes –
For this Easy Jarred Artichoke Hearts Recipe with Spicy Tomato Sauce I used jarred artichokes as the title states. I have made this dish with fresh artichokes before, and it has a completely different flavor. Believe it or not, the jarred artichokes gave this dish a far more superior flavor. Plus jarred artichokes are much cheaper than buying fresh artichokes and a lot easier to work with. Many people swear by not buying jarred or canned goods, but the Spaniards are well know for making some of the best jarred and canned goods in the world. The difference between fresh and jarred artchokes, besides the flavor is the texture, and the jarred ones are ready to eat right our of the jar, while fresh ones need to be cleaned, peeled and cut.
