- Cut artichokes into quarters and place in a bowl of cold water with the lemon slices for about 10 minutes. Repeat this process until all the artichokes are done.
- Cut delicata squash in half, scoop out the pulp and seeds, then peel and cube the squash. Place in a bowl set aside.
- Peel, wash and cut potatoes into semi thin rounds and 2-3 mm. Place in lemon water with artichokes.
- Drain artichokes and place in a saute pan with some olive oil and water, salt and pepper, and simmer for about 10 minutes on low to medium heat. Drain the potatoes in a strainer and place in an oiled 14" x 10" baking dish with the squash. Add in the steamed artichokes.
- Sprinkle with bread crumbs leaving a little for the end, add in Parmigiano, reserving a bit for the end too and drizzle with olive oil . Season with salt, pepper, and chili flakes.
- Toss in cubed Crotonese cheese and with clean hands toss getting all the bits well coated and blended.
- Sprinkle with remaining breadcrumbs and Parmigiano, drizzle a little olive oil over top. Place in oven and bake for 45 minutes or until you can see the cheese all melted and getting crispy.
- Take out of oven, sprinkle with some fresh chopped parsley, and it's ready to serve.
- Enjoy!
