Instructions
Using a sharp knife, level the bottom of each artichoke and cut 1 in. from the top. Using kitchen scissors, snip off tips of outer leaves.
Place in a steamer basket; place in a large saucepan over 1 in. of water. Bring to a boil; cover and steam for 20-25 minutes or until leaves near the center pull out easily.
With a spoon, carefully scrape out the fuzzy center portions of artichokes and discard.
In a small bowl, combine the bread crumbs, cheese, bacon and pepper.
Add oil; mix well. Gently spread artichoke leaves apart; fill with bread crumb mixture.
Place in a greased 8-in. square baking dish.
Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 10-15 minutes or until filling is lightly browned.
