Pan-broiled ham steak with pineapple glaze Recipe

American · Main course · 17 min total

A sweet and tangy pineapple glaze transforms a simple ham steak into a quick, flavorful main course perfect for weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

• 1 (1-inch thick) fully cooked ham steak (about 1.5 lbs)
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup pineapple juice
• 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon water (optional, for thickening)

Instructions

1. Pat ham steak dry with paper towels. Score the fat edge in a few places to prevent curling.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together pineapple juice, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, vinegar, cloves, and pepper.
3. Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add ham steak and cook until browned, about 3 minutes per side.
4. Pour pineapple mixture over ham. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes, turning once halfway.
5. Transfer ham to a platter. If desired, whisk cornstarch slurry into pan juices and simmer until thickened, about 1 minute. Spoon glaze over ham before serving.

Tips

• For a thicker glaze, use the cornstarch slurry.
• Leftover ham and glaze can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
• Serve with mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables to soak up the glaze.
