Ingredients
  • 1
    recipe Marinara Sauce (see recipe below)
  • 2
    12 ounce jar marinated artichoke hearts (or 4 6-ounce jars)
  • 1/2
    cup all-purpose flour
  • 2
    eggs
  • 2
    tablespoons water
  • 2/3

1. Prepare Marinara Sauce; keep warm. Drain artichoke hearts, discarding marinade; set artichokes aside. Place flour in a shallow dish. In a small bowl, beat eggs lightly with the water.
