Ingredients 

• 1 fresh ham steak (uncured and unsmoked) 
• 1/2 medium onion, finely chopped 
• 1/4 cup premium cooking oil (avocado or olive oil recommended) 
• 1/4 cup soy sauce alternative (we love coconut aminos!) 
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar or coconut sugar for a healthier twist 
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce 
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 
• 2-4 garlic cloves, finely minced 
• A pinch of black pepper

Marinate the Ham Steak:

1. In a mixing bowl, combine chopped onion, cooking oil, soy sauce alternative, brown or coconut sugar, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and a pinch of black pepper.
2. Place the fresh ham steak into a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag.
3. Pour the marinade mixture over the ham steak, ensuring it is well-coated.
4. Seal the bag and refrigerate for 4 to 12 hours. For optimal flavor infusion, gently massage and turn the bag periodically during marination.

Prepare for Cooking:

1. Remove the ham steak from the marinade bag and discard excess marinade.
2. Allow the steak to sit at room temperature for a more even cook.

Cooking Options:

• Grill Method: Preheat the grill and cook the ham steak over high heat for 3-4 minutes per side.
• Skillet Method: Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat. Place the steak in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side.

Serve hot and enjoy your gourmet marinated ham steak!
