Tips:

  • For the perfect citrus glaze, combine fresh orange and grapefruit juice, brown sugar, honey, and Dijon mustard in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the glaze has thickened slightly.
  • To ensure even cooking, use a meat mallet to pound the ham steaks to an even thickness before cooking.
  • Sear the ham steaks in a hot skillet with butter or oil until golden brown on both sides. This will help to lock in the juices and flavor.
  • After searing, transfer the ham steaks to a baking dish and pour the citrus glaze over top. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 15-20 minutes, or until the ham steaks are cooked through.
  • Serve the citrus glazed ham steaks immediately, garnished with fresh herbs or citrus slices.
