Marmalade-glazed ham or chicken Recipe

British · Main course · 75 min total

A sweet and tangy marmalade glaze transforms ham or chicken into a stunning centerpiece, perfect for holidays or special dinners.

Ingredients

• 1 (5-7 lb) bone-in ham or 1 (4-5 lb) whole chicken
• 1 cup orange marmalade
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
2. If using ham, score the surface in a diamond pattern. If using chicken, pat dry and season inside and out with salt and pepper.
3. In a small bowl, mix marmalade, mustard, brown sugar, vinegar, cloves, and ginger to make the glaze.
4. Place ham or chicken on a rack in a roasting pan. Brush generously with glaze.
5. Roast, basting every 15-20 minutes with remaining glaze, until internal temperature reaches 140°F for ham or 165°F for chicken (about 15 minutes per pound).
6. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with pan juices.

Tips

• For extra flavor, add a splash of bourbon or orange juice to the glaze.
• Leftover glaze can be refrigerated for up to a week and used on roasted vegetables.
• If using a spiral-cut ham, wrap loosely in foil to prevent drying.
