coarsely shred potatoes; pat dry with paper towels. In large bowl, toss potatoes with 1/8 tea. salt and 1/4 tea
pepper. In nonstick 10" skillet
with heat-safe handle (or wrap handle with a double thickness of foil), heat 1
tab. oil over medium heat. Working quickly,
add half the potatoes, gently patting with rubber spatula to cover bottom of

potatoes with half the cheese, all the artichokes, then remaining cheese. Cover with remaining potatoes, gently
patting to edge of skillet. Cook 10

tab. of oil to skillet, them slide back into skillet. Cook 10 min., gently shaking skillet from time to time. Place skillet in 400' oven and bake 20 to 25
min. until tender throughout. Makes 4
