Ham Steak with Cranberry Mustard Sauce

Our local grocery store had a sale on ham steaks, so we picked up a few for the freezer and one for dinner that night.  Checking in the larder I spied a package of dried cranberries, and that got me thinking (always a dangerous thing).

Ingredients for Cranberry Mustard Sauce

  1. 1/2 cup firmly packed Dark Brown sugar
  2. 1 Tbs Dijon Mustard
  3. 1 Tbs white wine or champagne vinegar.
  4. 5 oz package dried cranberries
  5. 1 1/2 cups of water
  6. 2 tbs cornstarch
  7. 2 tsp fresh lemon juice
  8. zest from lemon (optional)

Directions for Ham Steak with Cranberry Mustard Sauce

Prepare the sauce before beginning to cook the steak.

In a saute pan put the sugar,vinegar and water and on medium heat stir until the sugar is dissolved.  Once the sugar is dissolved take the pan off the heat and add the mustard, lemon juice, cornstarch and cranberries and stir to combine and then put back on the heat and slowly bring  up to boil.  As the sauce reaches boiling point it will begin to thicken.  Once thickened place on low heat to hold covered (allowing the sauce to steep brings out the cranberry flavor) and begin the steak.

Cook the steak by what ever method you feel comfortable with.  I like to grill mine on medium high heat for about 10 minutes.
