Honey Mustard Ham Steak
Ingredients:
- 2 ham steaks (about 1-inch thick)
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup Dijon mustard (or yellow mustard, depending on your preference)
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar (optional, for a tangy kick)
- 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Honey Mustard Glaze:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, and apple cider vinegar (if using). Set the glaze aside.
-
Cook the Ham Steaks:
- Heat the olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Season the ham steaks with a pinch of salt and pepper on both sides.
- Once the pan is hot, add the ham steaks and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are nicely browned and heated through.
-
Add the Honey Mustard Glaze:
- Once the ham steaks are cooked, reduce the heat to low. Pour the honey mustard glaze over the ham steaks, making sure they are evenly coated.
- Let the glaze simmer and thicken for 2-3 minutes, spooning some of the glaze over the steaks as it thickens. This will give the ham steaks a nice, sticky coating.
-
Serve:
- Transfer the ham steaks to plates and drizzle with any remaining glaze from the pan.
- Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Tips:
- Side Dish Pairings: Serve with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad for a well-rounded meal.
- Make It Spicy: For a spicy twist, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the glaze.
- Use Leftover Ham: This recipe works great with leftover ham steaks from a larger roast.
Honey Mustard Ham Steak is a quick and delicious dish that brings together sweet and savory flavors in every bite. Perfect for weeknights or special gatherings! Enjoy! 🍯🥩
