Ham and Pineapple with a Balsamic Brown Sugar Glaze
Ingredients
1lbham steakcut into 1" pieces
1small fresh pineapplecut into 1" pieces
2tablespoonsbrown sugar
2tablespoonswhite balsamic vinegarwhite wine vinegar would work as well
1tablespooncoconut oilor another flavorless oil
1teaspoondijon mustard
Instructions
Move the top oven rack to within 6 inches of the broiler and then preheat the oven to broil. (This would also be excellent on the grill.) Slide the ham and pineapple onto skewers and set aside. Layer a large baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack over it.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar, oil, vinegar and mustard. Place the skewers on top of the wire rack and brush them with the glaze. Place in the oven and broil for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven, carefully turn the skewers over and brush with the glaze again. Place back in the oven and broil 5 more minutes. Liberally baste the skewers with the rest of the glaze and broil an additional 3 minutes or so, until they begin to caramelize and become lightly browned.
Remove from the oven and let cool a few minutes before eating. Enjoy!
