Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces (about 8 ounces each) ham steaks
- 4 pieces pineapple rings
- 0.5 cup pineapple juice
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon ginger powder
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 stalks (optional, for garnish) green onions
Instructions
Pat the ham steaks dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
In a small bowl, mix together pineapple juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic powder, and ginger powder. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
Add the ham steaks to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side until lightly browned. Remove the ham steaks and set aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, pour in the pineapple juice mixture and bring it to a simmer. Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
Add the pineapple rings to the skillet and cook for 1 minute on each side to allow them to caramelize slightly.
Return the ham steaks to the skillet, spooning the sauce and pineapple rings over the top. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the ham to heat through and absorb the flavors.
Transfer the ham steaks and pineapple rings to serving plates. Drizzle any remaining sauce over the top.
Garnish with finely chopped green onions if desired, and serve immediately.
