Ingredients
- 1 lb Ham steak
- 1 cup Apple cider
- 2 tbsp Brown sugar
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 0.25 tsp Ground black pepper
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 1 tbsp Chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the ham steak to the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until it develops a golden-brown crust. Remove the ham steak and set it aside on a plate.
Step 3
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low and pour in the apple cider. Stir in the brown sugar, Dijon mustard, black pepper, and salt. Allow the mixture to simmer for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it reduces slightly and thickens.
Step 4
Add the butter to the cider glaze and stir until melted and combined.
Step 5
Return the ham steak to the skillet and spoon the glaze over the top. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, flipping once, to ensure the ham is warmed through and well-coated in the glaze.
Step 6
Remove the ham steak from the skillet and transfer to a serving platter. Drizzle any remaining glaze over the top.
Step 7
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve immediately.
