Orange Country Ham

Ingredients

2 Tbsp               Unsalted Butter

1 1/2 lbs.         Country Ham, sliced 1/8-1/4” thick

1/4 cup            Orange Juice, freshly squeezed

2 Tbsp                Orange Marmalade

1/4 cup            Pure Maple Syrup

1 1/2 tsp          Black Pepper, freshly ground

Instructions

Place a large heavy duty skillet over medium-high heat. Melt half of the butter and just as it begins to brown, place the ham slices in the skillet. Brown each side and place ham on a baking sheet. Repeat this process to brown the remaining ham.

Lower the heat and place the orange juice, marmalade and maple syrup in the ham skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring often to prevent burning. Add the ham back into the skillet along with the black pepper. Use a pair of tongs to move the ham and coat each slice with the glaze. When the ham is coated and hot, remove from the heat and serve immediately.

Yield: 6-8 servings
