Maple-Glazed Ham Steaks

Sue Lau | Palatable Pastime

These are very simple and quite good. They do not taste like holiday ham, despite a similar familiar glaze. These have a little more zip and the flavor is characterized by the caramelized onions and has no candied ham nature.
Very good as a quick weeknight meal. I would recommend serving this with a potato gratin and some sort of vegetable, perhaps a salad.

Ingredients:

• 2 (14-16 ounces total) boneless ham steaks
• 1 large onion, sliced
• 1 tablespoon butter

Glaze:

• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
• 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
• 3 tablespoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon butter

Method:

1. Brown  ham steaks in a grill pan or nonstick skillet; set aside.
2. Cook onion in butter until  caramelized; set aside.
3. Stir together glaze ingredients and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it reduces to a syrup.
4. Coat warm ham slices with syrupy glaze and serve topped with caramelized onions.

Serves: 2-3 Time  15-20 min.
