Glazed Ham Steaks
Description
This recipe uses ham steaks cooked by brushing on a prepared glaze mixture containing brown sugar, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, melted butter, and apple cider vinegar. The glaze ingredients balance sweetness from sugar and syrup with tanginess from mustard and vinegar, enriched by butter.
The ham steaks are seared in a hot pan over medium heat for a few minutes on each side, allowing the glaze to thicken and become sticky as it coats the ham. The cooking time is short to heat the ham through and develop a glossy finish without drying the meat.
The resulting dish presents ham with a rich, sweet-savory glaze that can serve as a main protein component for a meal. The glaze adds flavor depth and a pleasant texture contrast to the ham.
Leftover glazed ham steaks can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days. Reheating in a microwave or pan with additional maple syrup and Dijon mustard can revive the flavors.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds ham steaks cut
For the Glaze
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon butter melted
- ½ tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, maple syrup, mustard, butter, and cider vinegar. Brush the glaze mixture over both sides of the ham.
- Heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the ham steaks and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- Flip and cook for an additional 2 -3 minutes until heated through, and the glaze is sticky.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container refrigerated for up to 4 days.
- Reheat gently in a microwave or frying pan, optionally adding a bit more maple syrup and Dijon mustard to refresh flavor.
