Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 whole smoked ham, sliced
1 (12-ounce) can pineapple chunks
Lettuce, for garnish
Sauteed Sweet Potatoes and Corn, recipe follows
Caramelized Apples, recipe follows
1 sweet potato
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary leaves, minced
2 ears corn
1 green bell pepper
1 red bell pepper
4 red apples, sliced into wedges
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup brown sugar

Steps:

  • Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle the sugar mixture over the ham slices to coat all of the pieces. Heat a large grill pan over medium-high heat. Drain the pineapple chunks from the juice in the can. Add the ham and the pineapple chunks to the hot pan, and cook for approximately 20 minutes, or until the slices are golden brown. Reserve the liquid in the pan for the Sauteed Sweet Potatoes and Corn.
  • Serve over lettuce with the Sauteed Sweet Potatoes, Corn, and Caramelized Apples.
  • Bring a medium-sized pot of water to a boil. Peel and cut the sweet potato into small chunks. Add the sweet potato to the boiling water, and boil until tender. Drain the sweet potato into a colander. In the same pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Return the sweet potato to the pot, and add the rosemary. Saute until the sweet potato has developed nicely browned crusts on the cut sides, and then remove it to a large serving bowl.
  • In another medium-sized pot, place 2 ears of corn in just enough water to cover, and bring to a boil. Continue boiling until kernels are soft and tender. Meanwhile, slice the green and red peppers into 1/4-inch strips. Add the peppers to the pan with the liquid from the sauteed ham, and cook over medium-high heat. Slice the corn off the cob, and add it to the pan with the peppers. Continue sauteing until vegetables are crisp yet tender. Add the corn and pepper mixture to the bowl with the sweet potato, and toss gently until combined.
  • In a large pot, add the apples and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until apples are tender. Drain in a colander. To the same pot, add the butter and brown sugar, and return the apples. Over low heat, stir with a wooden spoon until the apples absorb the sugar and the butter has melted.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ham steak: Look for a ham steak that is about 1 inch thick and has a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that the steak is juicy and flavorful.
  • Marinating the ham steak: Marinating the ham steak in a flavorful marinade before grilling helps to tenderize the meat and add flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, such as a simple olive oil and garlic marinade, a tangy vinegar-based marinade, or a sweet and smoky barbecue sauce marinade.
  • Grilling the ham steak: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat before grilling the ham steak. This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the steak while keeping the inside juicy. Cook the ham steak for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through.
  • Resting the ham steak: After grilling the ham steak, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.

Conclusion:

Fiesta Grilled Ham Steak is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can ensure that your ham steak is juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give Fiesta Grilled Ham Steak a try!
