Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Ham slices
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 cup Orange marmalade
- 2 tablespoons Dark rum
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a nonstick skillet over medium heat, melt the butter until it begins to foam.
Add the ham slices to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and slightly caramelized. Remove the ham slices from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
Reduce the heat to low and add the orange marmalade, dark rum, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet for extra flavor.
Allow the marmalade mixture to simmer gently for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly into a glossy glaze.
Return the ham slices to the skillet, spooning the rum marmalade glaze over the top. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring the ham is warmed through and coated evenly in the glaze.
Remove the skillet from the heat. Transfer the ham slices to a serving platter and drizzle any remaining glaze over the top.
Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve immediately. Pair with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
