SERVES

COOK TIME
45 Min

Ham was no stranger to the early Southern settlers. It was so popular 'cause, with little or no refrigeration, cured ham was a safe choice. Today we eat it just because of its super taste!

What You'll Need

  • 1 (7 ½-ounce) can pineapple slices, drained, juice reserved
  • 1 (6-ounce) jar maraschino cherries, drained, juice reserved
  • 1/2 cup firmly-packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon whole cloves
  • 2 tablespoon butter
  • 1 (2- to 2-1/2-pound) ham steak

What to Do

  1. In a small bowl, combine reserved pineapple and cherry juices, brown sugar, and cloves; mix well and set aside.
     
  2. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add ham and brown 3 to 4 minutes per side.
     
  3. Add juice mixture to skillet, cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, 25 minutes.
     
  4. Add pineapple slices and cherries; mix well. Cook, uncovered, an additional 8 to 10 minutes, or until sauce thickens and fruit is heated through.
