Ingredients
- 3/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 cup liquid honey
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon prepared mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 6 ham steaks
Instructions
-
Prepare the Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, liquid honey, brown sugar, prepared mustard, and garlic powder until well combined. This mixture will form a flavorful marinade for the ham steaks.
-
-
Marinate the Ham Steaks: Place the ham steaks in a large resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the ham steaks, ensuring they are fully coated. Seal the bag tightly, removing as much air as possible. To prevent leaks, place the sealed bag in a baking dish.
-
Refrigerate: Place the baking dish in the refrigerator and allow the ham steaks to marinate. For best results, marinate for at least 1/2 hour, but you can leave them for up to 6 hours. Turn the bag occasionally to ensure the ham steaks are evenly coated with the marinade.
-
Cook the Ham Steaks: After marinating, you have two options for cooking:
-
Stove Top: Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Remove the ham steaks from the marinade and place them in the hot pan. Cook for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until the ham steaks are heated through and have a nice caramelized glaze.
-
BBQ: Preheat your grill to medium heat. Remove the ham steaks from the marinade, reserving the marinade for basting. Grill the ham steaks for about 5-7 minutes per side, basting occasionally with the reserved marinade, until they are heated through and have a deliciously caramelized surface.
-
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once cooked, transfer the ham steaks to a serving platter. Garnish with pineapple chunks if desired for an extra tropical touch. Serve hot and enjoy the sweet and savory flavors of your glazed ham steaks.
