Ingredients
- 1 piece (approximately 8 oz) ham steak
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Pat dry the ham steak with paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, and apple cider vinegar until well combined. Set aside.
Step 3
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil and butter. Allow the butter to melt completely.
Step 4
Place the ham steak in the hot skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on the first side until lightly browned.
Step 5
Flip the ham steak and pour the prepared glaze over the top. Use a spoon to spread the glaze evenly over the surface.
Step 6
Continue cooking the ham steak for another 3-4 minutes, spooning the glaze from the pan over the steak to ensure it's well-coated.
Step 7
Once the glaze has thickened and the ham steak is heated through, remove it from the skillet and transfer it to a serving plate.
Step 8
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve immediately with your choice of sides, such as mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
