Ham With Spiced Cherry Sauce
- 3/4 cup cherry preserves
- 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
- 2 teaspoons grated orange zest
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/16 teaspoon salt
- 1 fully cooked ham steak (about 1 1/4 lbs.)
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- In a small saucepan, combine preserves, vinegar, orange zest, cinnamon, cloves and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium high heat, stirring until sauce is well combined, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and keep warm.
- Pat ham dry with paper towels. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add ham and cook until lightly browned and heated through, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
- Transfer ham to a serving platter, drizzle with cherry sauce and garnish with orange zest, if desired. Serve any remaining sauce on the side.
- Dress it up. To make your Easter platter look more festive, top the ham steak with broiled orange slices. Just lay 1/2-inch slices on a greased sheet pan, sprinkle with a touch of sugar and broil until lightly brown.
