Savory Baked Artichoke Hearts with Cheesy Crust

Step 1

Get ready to create a scrumptious dish by preheating your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Take a shallow baking dish or a glass pie plate and give it a light spray with cooking oil to prevent sticking.

Step 2

Now, it's time to get artsy with your cooking skills! Place the artichoke hearts at the bottom of the dish in a neat arrangement. Pour 1/4 cup of your favorite salad dressing over the artichokes, letting the flavors mingle and soak in.

Step 3

Pop your dish into the preheated oven and let it bake for 10 minutes. Once done, take it out and generously sprinkle cheese over the top. Drizzle the remaining 1/4 cup of salad dressing for an extra burst of flavor. Put it back in the oven and let the cheese melt and bubble, usually around 10 minutes. Turn off the heat but keep the dish in the warm oven.

Step 4

For a finishing touch, add a delightful crunch by sprinkling some fried onions over the cheesy goodness. Return the dish to the oven for another minute to let the onions crisp up slightly. Your artichoke masterpiece is now ready to be devoured!
