An anonymous OCThen reader asks if anyone knows the "sauteed artichoke hearts" recipe that the old Reubens restaurant chain used to offer...

I worked at Reubens Restaurant in 1970s in Fullerton. I am trying to locate the sauteed artichoke hearts recipe. Anyone know it??

"Post a Comment" if you know anything.

Have no idea how I found this site, but I can answer your question. I was a cook at Reuben's in Orange (#41 I think, across from Orange Mall) around 1982-84.

If you haven't given up checking this, the artichoke appetizer was everyone's favorite and really easy to make. Roll the artichokes in flour, then dip in eqq and roll in tempura. Cook in the deep fryer until golden brown and put in a little skillet to make the customers think that was where we cooked them. Then cover in garlic butter (the same garlic butter we used for scampi - just melted butter, a little lemon and garlic, and then sprinkle on parmesan cheese and parsley. That's it.
