Artichokes French - lighter?

I love taking artichokes, dipping them in egg wash, flouring them, and then sauteeing them in olive oil.. finishing them with a silky buttery lemon-wine sauce. But this isn't too healthy. Any ideas as to how to keep the texture and flavor of the dish while lightening it up?

try grilling them.... especially now that it's finally summer (at least here it finally got to be summer).... you'll probably want to cut them into at least quarters (depending on how large they are - or eighths if they're really big)
marinate with a little lemon and olive oil, parsley, garlic and then grill them.

or if you want to saute them, try using a little fresh lemon or an aioli instead of the buttery lemon-wine sauce....

i love them the way you do them, also.... they taste good every and any which way....
