INSTANT POT® ARTICHOKES WITH SPICY AIOLI

Steps:

• Juice 1 lemon half into a bowl. Roughly chop the skin; place in a medium bowl of cold water.
• Place mayonnaise in a small bowl and add 1 tablespoon lemon juice, dried parsley, and paprika. Finely chop 2 garlic cloves and add to the bowl. Mix well and refrigerate aioli for at least 1 hour.
• Cut 1 inch off the top of the artichokes and pinch off any dry leaves. Snip off the spikes with kitchen shears. Place artichokes in the lemon water for 30 minutes to prevent the chokes from oxidizing.
• Chop the remaining lemon half and place in the bottom of a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) along with any remaining lemon juice. Add 1 cup water, 1 whole garlic clove, fresh parsley, salt, pepper, and bay leaf. Place 1 garlic clove in the center of each artichoke.
• Place a steam rack inside the pot and place the artichokes stem-side up onto the rack. Close and lock the lid. Select Manual function; set timer for 11 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Serve artichokes with the aioli.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the mushrooms and green onions, and cook until the mushrooms have softened and released their liquid, about 3 minutes. Scrape the mushrooms into the mixing bowl along with the broccoli, then add the artichoke hearts, sour cream, mayonnaise, and Parmesan cheese. Gently fold together until evenly mixed and spread into a 9x13 inch baking dish. Arrange the sliced tomatoes over the broccoli, then sprinkle with the bread crumbs.
