Content: Saute one alongside eggs at breakfast or broil one in the oven with a sweet glaze to have with sweet potatoes for dinner. Ham steaks are versatile, flavorful and easy to prepare. The steaks usually come boneless and thin-cut, or thick with the bone still in; you can also cut ham steaks from a leftover holiday ham. The type of steak you choose depends on your personal preference -- the cooking process is the same. Advertisement
Pan-Roasting or Pan-Frying
Ham steaks are a natural for cooking in a hot pan over moderate heat. The outside of the ham caramelizes slightly, giving the meat an irresistible crispy exterior to counter its moist interior. Heat the pan and add a bit of cooking spray or a teaspoon of cooking oil. Cook for about 3 minutes each side for thin ham steaks, or 5 to 8 minutes per side for thick-cut versions. Tip
Once the steaks are browned on each side, remove them from the pan to make an easy vegetable accompaniment.
