Any day I can get my kids to devour vegetables and beg for more is a good day. These grilled artichokes are just the right texture combo of soft and crisp and just the right flavor combo of sweet, savory, and acidic. Each bite you get tender grilled artichoke, crispy bacon breadcrumbs, and creamy lemon aioli. They’re the most addictive vegetables ever, for adults and kids alike.

Preheat your Nexgrill to 400-450º.
Place the partially cooked and buttered artichoke quarters onto the grill so that a piece of the heart makes direct contact with the grill grates.
Grill for 3-5 minutes per side. Then flip the artichokes to their back so the heart is facing up, and fill each cavity with a large spoonful of bacon breadcrumbs.
Close the lid and grill for another 3-5 minutes until breadcrumbs are golden brown.
Remove artichokes to a platter, and drizzle with (or serve alongside) lemon aioli.
