Ingredients
-
1 x 400g tin of artichoke hearts, drained and sliced in half
-
1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 x 250g tub of ricotta cheese
-
The zest of 1 lemon
-
1 x 700g jar of Bold Bean Co Queen Butter Beans (or 2 x 400g tins of butter beans), drained
-
4 tbsp olive oil
-
A handful of fresh parsley (roughly 10g), roughly chopped
-
2 tbsp capers, roughly chopped

For the Dressing
Directions
Add all of the ingredients for the dressing to a small bowl and mix well to combine. Toss in the butter beans and leave to marinate will you carry on with the next steps.
Bring a griddle pan to a medium-high heat. Add the artichokes and drizzle with oil and a pinch of salt and cook for 3-4 minutes, turning half way-through, until griddle marks show.
Meanwhile, add the ricotta to a mixing bowl with the zest of 1 lemon and whip into creamy consistency.
To plate, spread the ricotta onto a serving plate, top with the artichokes, scatter over the marinated beans and finish with a drizzle of the last bits of the dressing/marinade. Finish with some lemon zest and an extra drizzle of olive oil, if you like.
