Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ham slice
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
1. In a small mixing bowl, combine brown sugar, honey, grated fresh ginger, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, black pepper, and water to create the glaze. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is smooth.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
3. Place the ham slice in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until it starts to brown.
4. Reduce heat to low and pour the prepared glaze over the ham slice. Allow the glaze to simmer and thicken for 5-7 minutes, occasionally spooning it over the ham to coat evenly.
5. Turn the ham slice once more to ensure it is fully glazed and heated through.
6. Remove the ham slice from the skillet and transfer it to a serving plate. Drizzle any remaining glaze from the skillet over the ham.
7. Serve immediately, paired with your favorite side dishes like mashed potatoes, steamed vegetables, or a fresh salad.
