Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces ham slices
- 6 slices pineapple rings
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
- 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.25 cup pineapple juice
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, and ground ginger.
Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the ham slices and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the butter over medium heat until melted and bubbly.
Add the pineapple rings to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until caramelized. Remove the pineapple rings and set them aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, pour in the pineapple juice and stir in the honey, stirring to combine. Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes to reduce slightly.
Add the seasoned ham slices to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, ensuring they absorb the glaze.
Return the caramelized pineapple rings to the skillet, placing one ring on top of each ham slice.
Season with a small pinch of salt and black pepper to taste.
Cook everything together for an additional 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Transfer the spiced pineapple ham slices to a serving platter and drizzle any remaining glaze from the skillet over the top.
Serve warm and enjoy this delightful mix of sweet and savory flavors.
