Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large firm red apple such as Braeburn, Gala,Rome Beauty, or Fuji
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 (1/4-inch-thick) baked ham slices, quartered
1 large shallot, finely chopped
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1/2 cup apple juice
1 1/2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard, or to taste
Pinch of ground cloves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250°F.
  • Core whole apple (without peeling) and cut 8 (1/4-inch-thick) rounds.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat, then sauté ham, turning once, until browned, 5 to 6 minutes total. Transfer ham to a heatproof dish and keep warm, loosely covered with foil, in oven. Add remaining tablespoon butter to skillet and sauté apple slices, turning once, until golden and tender, 4 minutes total. Top each piece of ham with an apple slice and continue layering, using all of ham and apple slices, to make 2 stacks. Keep warm in oven.
  • Add shallot to skillet and sauté over moderately high heat, stirring, until golden. Add vinegar and cook, stirring, 10 seconds, or until absorbed by shallots. Add apple juice and boil until reduced by half. Add mustards and cloves and boil until mixture is slightly thickened and syrupy. Serve stacks with sauce.

I've made this dish several times and it's always a hit. It's a great way to use up leftover ham. I usually serve it with mashed potatoes and green beans.

I'm not a fan of apples, but I really enjoyed this dish. The apples were cooked perfectly and they didn't overpower the ham. I would definitely make this again.

I made this dish in my slow cooker and it turned out great! I cooked it on low for 6 hours and the ham and apples were fall-apart tender. I served it over mashed potatoes and it was a delicious and comforting meal.

I added a little bit of Dijon mustard to the glaze and it really gave the dish a nice tangy flavor. I would definitely recommend trying this variation.

I had a hard time finding ham steaks at my local grocery store. I ended up using thick-cut ham slices, which worked just fine.

This dish was a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it if the apples were not caramelized. The ham was delicious, though.
