HAM STEAKS WITH ASPARAGUS-RICE SALAD

Steps:

• Mix the mayonnaise, sour cream, chives and mustard in a bowl.
• Bring a saucepan of water to a boil. Add the rice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; reduce the heat to low and simmer until almost tender, about 15 minutes. Add the asparagus and simmer until the rice and asparagus are tender, about 3 more minutes. Drain in a fine-mesh sieve and rinse under cold water, stirring gently to remove excess water. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in the lemon juice and half of the prepared chive sauce; season with salt and pepper.
• Heat the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ham steaks, overlapping as necessary, and cook, flipping occasionally, until golden, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the brown sugar over the ham and cook, flipping often, until the sugar melts. Season with pepper. Serve with the rice salad, the remaining chive sauce and lemon wedges.

GRILLED HAM SALAD WITH PEACHES AND GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium. Toast the pecans in a dry skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, 5 to 7 minutes; set aside.
• Lightly brush the grill grates with olive oil. Add the ham steaks and grill until marked and heated through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a cutting board and slice into 1/2-inch-thick strips; set aside.
• Whisk the vinegar, honey, mustard, herbs and shallot in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until emulsified. Add the peaches, mesclun, pecans and ham and gently toss. Season with salt and pepper and top with the goat cheese.

GRILLED HAM STEAKS WITH SAUTEED SWEET POTATOES, CORN AND CARAMELIZED APPLES

Steps:

• Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle the sugar mixture over the ham slices to coat all of the pieces. Heat a large grill pan over medium-high heat. Drain the pineapple chunks from the juice in the can. Add the ham and the pineapple chunks to the hot pan, and cook for approximately 20 minutes, or until the slices are golden brown. Reserve the liquid in the pan for the Sauteed Sweet Potatoes and Corn.
• Serve over lettuce with the Sauteed Sweet Potatoes, Corn, and Caramelized Apples.
• Bring a medium-sized pot of water to a boil. Peel and cut the sweet potato into small chunks. Add the sweet potato to the boiling water, and boil until tender. Drain the sweet potato into a colander. In the same pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Return the sweet potato to the pot, and add the rosemary. Saute until the sweet potato has developed nicely browned crusts on the cut sides, and then remove it to a large serving bowl.
• In another medium-sized pot, place 2 ears of corn in just enough water to cover, and bring to a boil. Continue boiling until kernels are soft and tender. Meanwhile, slice the green and red peppers into 1/4-inch strips. Add the peppers to the pan with the liquid from the sauteed ham, and cook over medium-high heat. Slice the corn off the cob, and add it to the pan with the peppers. Continue sauteing until vegetables are crisp yet tender. Add the corn and pepper mixture to the bowl with the sweet potato, and toss gently until combined.
• In a large pot, add the apples and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until apples are tender. Drain in a colander. To the same pot, add the butter and brown sugar, and return the apples. Over low heat, stir with a wooden spoon until the apples absorb the sugar and the butter has melted.
