Lemon Roasted Artichokes

Line a baking pan with aluminum foil and preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut 1 inch off the top of the artichokes and trim the outer leaves. Cut the artichokes in half lengthwise. Use a knife to carefully core out the hairs from the center of the artichoke and place a garlic clove in each pocket. Drizzle with olive oil, squeeze the juice of one lemon over the artichokes, and sprinkle generously with salt, rosemary and thyme. Flip the halves over to roast on top of lemon slices. Roast for 45 minutes and flip to broil for 2 minutes to brown!
