Ingredients
Scale
Ham Steaks
- 2 ham steaks (bone-in or boneless, about 1 lb each)
- 1 tbsp butter (or olive oil)
Honey Mustard Glaze
- 3 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard (or yellow mustard for a milder taste)
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
Instructions
1. Prepare the Honey Mustard Glaze
- In a small bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, brown sugar, garlic powder, and black pepper.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or tanginess as needed.
2. Cook the Ham Steaks
- Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add ham steaks and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown.
3. Glaze the Ham Steaks
- Pour honey mustard glaze over the ham steaks in the pan.
- Let the glaze simmer for 1-2 minutes, turning the ham to coat evenly.
- The sauce should thicken slightly, giving the ham a glossy finish.
4. Serve and Enjoy!
- Remove from the skillet and serve immediately.
- Drizzle extra glaze over the ham for added flavor.
Notes
- Don’t overcook the ham: Since ham steaks are already fully cooked, you just need to heat them through and caramelize the glaze.
- Customize the glaze: Add more mustard for tang or honey for sweetness.
- Get a good sear: Use a hot skillet to create a beautiful caramelized crust.
- Grilling option: Grill the ham steaks and brush the glaze on during the last few minutes of cooking.
