1 ½ lemons, juiced and zested (2 ½ tablespoons of juice), divided
2 tablespoons avocado oil
1 teaspoon salt, divided
¼ teaspoon pepper
½ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup Greek yogurt
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 crushed garlic cloves
1 teaspoon minced chives
Directions
Trim the stem of your artichokes so there is about 1 inch remaining.
With kitchen shears trim the rough points off of the leaves.
Cut the artichokes in half starting with the stem of the artichoke.
Cut off the top ½ inch of each artichoke half.
With a sharp knife cut out the fuzzy part of the artichoke.
Zest the lemons and juice them.
Brush both sides of the artichokes with the oil and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and season with ½ teaspoon salt and pepper.
Place the artichokes cut side down in the air fryer and cook for 15 minutes at 350 F.
While the artichokes are cooking, make the sauce by combining the mayonnaise, remaining salt, yogurt, mustard, garlic, remaining ½ tablespoon lemon juice, lemon zest, and minced chives.
When the time is up for the artichokes, flip them over and cook for 10-15 more minutes or until a leaf pulls out easily.
When the artichokes are done, serve them with the sauce.
