Steps
Preparation of Breaded Artichokes
Take the artichokes and clean them
Remove the outer leaves and the harder part of the stem
With a knife, clean the stem by peeling away the hard part
Cut the tips and divide the artichoke into wedges, not too thin or too thick, and remove the internal fuzz
To prevent them from darkening, as you clean them, place them in a bowl of cold water with squeezed lemon
Drain them and dry them well with absorbent paper or a cloth
In a bowl, beat the eggs; in another, mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan, salt, pepper, and a bunch of chopped parsley. Dip each wedge first in the egg, then in the breading
As you bread them, arrange the artichokes in a single layer without overlapping on the tray or grill, previously greased, and spray them with a bit of oil
Transfer to the air fryer and cook at 400°F for 10 minutes. If necessary, turn them halfway through
Perfect cooking and browning! Crispy outside and tender inside
Serve them piping hot🤤

Storage, Tips, and Variations
Breaded artichokes can be stored in the refrigerator for a couple of days, well covered with plastic wrap.
You can reheat them in the air fryer at 340°F for a few minutes. Spray them on the surface with olive oil to make them as crispy as freshly made.
For the breading, you can use Parmesan, Grana, or grated Pecorino, don’t overdo the quantities, too much cheese could overshadow and cover the flavor of the artichoke. A couple of tablespoons of Parmesan or Grana and one of Pecorino are sufficient.
If you like, you can add spices to the breading, but I prefer them plain.
