Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 2 (14 ounce) cans quartered artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme

  • 4 cups chicken broth

  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large pot. Add onion and cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes. Add artichoke hearts, garlic, and thyme, and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Cook, uncovered, for about 10 minutes.

  2. Stir in Parmesan cheese and lemon juice. Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup to a blender and blend in batches, then return it to the pot. Discard any fibrous artichoke pieces that remain stuck to the blades, or strain for a smoother soup.

  3. Stir in heavy cream; season with salt and pepper. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until soup is heated through and flavors have melded together, another 4 to 5 minutes. Garnish with extra Parmesan cheese.
