Beer-battered anything and we’re in.Β  Whip up these Smoked Garlic Jalapeno Lager Beer-Battered Artichoke Hearts at home for a perfectly-crisp-and-golden bite of fried deliciousness. Then proceed to dip those babies into whatever the heck you want - but we recommend mixing together plain Greek yogurt, lemon juice, chives and black pepper.

Smoked Garlic Jalapeno Lager Beer-Battered Artichoke Hearts

Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons Spiceology X Derek Wolf Garlic Chile Lager
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • Zest of half of a lemon
  • 12 oz of favorite beer, we recommend a Lager

  • Canola oil
  • Capers and fresh chives, for garnish
  • Extra lemon slices to squeeze on top

Directions

  1. Mix together flour, corn starch, Smoked Garlic Jalapeno Lager and lemon zest.
  2. Once dry ingredients are incorporated, slowly whisk in your beer and stir until smooth.
  3. Fill a heavy bottom pot with canola oil, at least 1/3 of the way up - heat until 375Β° F or when the back of a wooden spoon bubbles up.

  4. Drain artichokes, pat try and coat in batter.
  5. Fry coated artichoke hearts for 3-5 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Squeeze lemon on top, garnish with capers and fresh chives, and serve with a lemony yogurt sauce for dipping (we simply mixed together plain Greek yogurt, lemon juice, chives and black pepper).
  7. Enjoy!
