Ingredients

Scale

Glaze Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar (use all brown sugar or all honey instead of both)
  • 1 tablespoon honey (or try maple syrup)
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (or any grainy mustard)
  • ½ tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

Main Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (⅛ stick)
  • 16 ounces cooked ham steaks (1 (8-ounce) steak, boneless or bone-in both work)

Instructions

  1. Whisk the glaze ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, and ground black pepper. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  2. Melt the butter: Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the unsalted butter and let it melt completely, coating the bottom of the skillet.
  3. Cook the ham steaks: Place the ham steaks into the skillet and cook each side for about 3–4 minutes until they are lightly browned and heated through.
  4. Glaze the ham steaks: Using a brush or spoon, coat both sides of the ham steaks generously with the prepared glaze. Continue cooking for another 2–3 minutes per side, allowing the glaze to caramelize and form a shiny, flavorful coating.
  5. Slice and serve: Remove the ham steaks from the skillet. Slice each steak in half and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious glazed ham steaks!

Notes

  • You can substitute all the brown sugar with honey or vice versa depending on your preferred sweetness.
  • Try using maple syrup instead of honey for a different sweet flavor.
  • Both boneless and bone-in ham steaks work equally well for this recipe.
  • Use a nonstick skillet to prevent sticking and ensure even caramelization.
  • Keep an eye on the glaze while caramelizing to avoid burning the sugar.
