Ingredients

1 lb ham steak
2 tablespoons butter
1 granny smith apple, peeled, cored, finely diced
1/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup apple cider
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

1

Remove rind and trim off all but 1/4-inch of outer fat. Cut ham into two serving pieces. Score the fat edge at 1-inch intervals so the steak does not curl during cooking.
2

Lightly saute, ham on both sides in butter for 3-4 minutes a side. Remove ham steak to a plate and keep warm.
3

Add diced apples and saute until somewhat soft. Stir in mustard and cider and reduce until the cider has almost entirely evaporated.
4

Slowly wisk in the heavy cream and reduce until slightly thickened. Season to taste with salt and pepper and spoon sauce over steak.
