Preparation steps

1.
Cut off the stems close to the base. Pull off petals around the base that are small and tough. Cut off the top inch of the artichoke and rub with half a lemon to preserve the green color.
2.
In a large saucepan bring liquid, oil and sliced lemon to a boil over medium-high heat.
3.
Add artichokes to the steaming liquid, bottom up. Cover, reduce heat and simmer for about 30 minutes. The artichokes are done when you can insert a knife into the base and there is no resistance. Remove from pan and drain. Season with salt and pepper.
4.
For Lemon Butter:
5.
