directions

Step 1

Heat the oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add the artichokes, spinach, chopped garlic and 1 teaspoon of the lemon juice and saute until the spinach begins to wilt and the garlic becomes fragrant, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer to a food processor. Add the Parmigiano-Reggiano, feta, parsley and the remaining 2 tablespoons lemon juice and pulse until smooth. Add the kosher salt and season to taste with pepper.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the sea salt flakes and lime zest with your fingers. Set aside.

Step 3

Rub the remaining whole garlic clove onto one side of each slice of bread. Divide the artichoke mixture equally among the slices, place on a platter and serve; or, spoon into a serving bowl and serve with the bread slices on the side. Garnish with the radishes and lime salt.
