Scale
  • 1 T. olive oil 
  • 23 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 1 large leek, sliced thinly
  • 2 T. dry (white) vermouth or not-too-dry white wine
  • 1, 14.5 oz jar of marinated artichoke hearts, drained

Instructions

  1. Warm olive oil in a medium-sized sauté pan. Add garlic and leeks until slightly browned.
  2. Add white wine to deglaze your pan.
