Ingredients

• 2 medium-sized whole artichokes (mine were about 5 1/2 ounces each)
• 1 lemon wedge
• 1 cup water

Directions

• Rinse the artichokes with water and remove any damaged outer leaves. Using a sharp knife, carefully trim off the stem and top third of each artichoke. Rub the cut top with a lemon wedge to prevent browning.
• Set the steam rack or a steamer basket into the Instant Pots cooking insert, place the artichokes on top, and pour in a cup of water. Close the lid and ensure that the valve is set to sealed position. Select Manual mode and adjust the time to 20 minutes. For larger or smaller artichokes, adjust the time up or down by 5 minutes.
• When the cooking time is up, hit Cancel to turn off the warming function. Wait 10 minutes, then open the valve to release the remaining pressure. Use tongs to remove the artichokes from the cooker and serve warm with the dipping sauce of your choice.
