Ingredients

Servings 4 Serving Size 1/2 artichoke

2 whole artichokes
1/2 cup dry white wine (regular or nonalcoholic), fat-free, low-sodium chicken broth, or water
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons chopped, fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley
2 medium minced garlic cloves

Pour the wine and water into the pressure cooker. Place the steaming rack in the cooker. Arrange the artichoke halves with the cut side up on the rack.
In a small bowl, stir together the parsley, garlic, oregano, and salt. Sprinkle over the artichokes. Secure the lid. Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes. Quickly release the pressure.
Transfer the artichokes to a platter. Drizzle with the oil.
