Lamb with Artichokes

Submitted by Cristina Carroccio Sears

From a wonderful book mother and daddy gave me back in 1992 when I was 17. This book has an entire page on how to prep fresh artichokes. Please do what I do, go to the store and purchase several cans of artichoke hearts. The meal will still be company presentable.

2-3 cans of artichoke hearts, drained
2 cloves of garlic, peeled
20 sprigs of Italian parsley
3/4 cup of olive oil
