Bonnies Ham Slices With Pineapple And Cherries Food

GLAZED PINEAPPLE HAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Shingle the ham slices in 2 rows on a ceramic baking dish. Top each with a pineapple slice, then place a cherry in the middle of each pineapple ring. Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes.
• Whisk together the brown sugar, apple juice and mustard. Remove the ham from the oven, uncover and drizzle with the glaze. Continue to bake, glazing in 5-minute intervals, for an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Serve in the baking dish.

PINEAPPLE BROWN SUGAR-GLAZED BONELESS HAM

Steps:

• Let the ham sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the ham on a cutting board. Using a sharp paring knife, score the top and sides in a diagonal crosshatch pattern about 1/4 inch deep. Push the cloves into the ham if using, placing them at the intersections of the cuts. Put the ham, scored side-up, on a rack set in a roasting pan.
• Drain the pineapple rings, reserving the juice. Arrange the sliced pineapple all over the ham, securing with toothpicks. Add a maraschino cherry to the center of each pineapple slice and secure with a toothpick.
• Pour 1/4 inch water into the bottom of the pan and tent the ham loosely with foil. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the ham registers 130 degrees F, about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, combine the honey, brown sugar and reserved pineapple juice in a large saucepan set over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, syrupy and reduced to about 3 cups, 25 to 30 minutes. Set aside.
• Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
• Uncover the ham and carefully brush a third of the glaze all over. If the water in the roasting pan has evaporated, add more. Bake the ham for 15 minutes more. Brush with another third of the glaze and bake for 15 minutes more. Brush the remaining glaze over the ham and cook until the glaze is shiny and the skin is dark golden brown and crispy, about 15 minutes more. Let rest for 15 minutes before slicing.

• 3. Add the onions, garlic, chicken granules, McCormick seasoning, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and slow simmer for about an hour.
• 4. Add the carrots, simmer for 1/2 hour, then add the potatoes. When the potatoes are just tender, add the green beans and simmer until tender. Avoid adding more seasoning until end of cooking time because flavors blend as it simmers.

Repeat the layer of garlic, potatoes, onions, salt, and pepper, and ham. Add the cream evenly over the top, and then add the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese of choice, plus, the 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese. Cover the pie plate with foil. Bake 35 minutes, then remove foil and bake 35 minutes more until golden brown and the pie is set.
