Aunt Peggy's Orange Glazed Ham Steak

  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon, plus 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons boiling water
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 2 oranges, zest finely grated and juiced

  • 2 (1-pound, 1/2-inch thick) ham steaks

In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch and boiling water until the granules dissolve. Whisk in the orange zest and juice.

Put the ham steaks in a large baking dish. Pour half of the glaze over the meat, turning once to coat them evenly. Bake for 1 hour, flipping the steaks occasionally and basting them with the remaining glaze. The glaze will thicken and the finished ham will be golden around the edges. Remove from the oven and transfer the steaks to a serving platter. Serve hot.

From Food Network/Paula Deen.  This smelled wonderful, but didn't taste as good as it smelled.  The sauce was gloppy and gross looking and the ham was really dried out after a whole hour in the oven.
