Small boneless ham is the perfect centerpiece for this sheet pan dinner for 4. The ham roasts with a sweet and sticky jam and mustard glaze, while the potatoes become crisp and tender as they soak in a delicious garlic butter. Finish the dish with a simple roasted asparagus, buttered rolls, and almost no cleanup!

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, sliced
4 sprigs thyme, plus 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup fig jam
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup country Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 small fully cooked boneless ham (2 1/2 to 2 3/4 pounds)
4 medium russet potatoes
1 bunch asparagus, trimmed
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 small shallot, thinly sliced and separated into rings
1 cup shredded gruyère cheese (about 4 ounces)
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives
Buttered dinner rolls, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Melt the butter with the garlic, thyme sprigs and a large pinch each of salt and pepper in a small saucepan over medium heat; remove from the heat and let sit 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the ham: Stir together the fig jam, brown sugar, mustard, vinegar and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl until the sugar dissolves; set aside. Score lines in a crosshatch pattern, 1 inch apart, into the top and sides of the ham; loosely wrap in a large sheet of heavy-duty foil, pouring 1/4 cup water over the ham before sealing. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Make the potatoes: Cut a thin sliver from one long side of a potato so that it sits flat; position cut-side down between the handles of two wooden spoons. Using a sharp knife, make cuts in the potato 1/8 inch apart, stopping when your knife hits the spoon handles (do not cut all the way through). Repeat with the remaining potatoes. Arrange on the baking sheet with the ham, drizzle with half of the garlic butter and season generously with salt and pepper. Bake 40 minutes.
  • Open the foil and brush the ham with two-thirds of the fig glaze (leave the foil open). Drizzle the potatoes with the remaining garlic butter. Bake until a thermometer inserted into the center of the ham reaches 145˚ F, the glaze is browned and the potatoes are very tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 30 to 40 more minutes.
  • Make the asparagus: Toss the asparagus with the olive oil, shallot, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Brush the ham with the remaining glaze. Push the potatoes to one side of the baking sheet and sprinkle with the cheese. Spread the asparagus in the open space on the baking sheet. Continue baking until the ham glaze is sticky, the cheese on the potatoes is melted and the asparagus is tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Let the ham rest 10 minutes, then slice. Sprinkle the potatoes with the thyme leaves and chives. Serve with rolls.

HAM AND ASPARAGUS CASSEROLE



Ham and Asparagus Casserole image

Great way to use up leftover rice--I modified a recipe I found on the web and ended up with a real winner. Also great the next morning with scrambled eggs. I have a feeling that the right combination of seasonings could replace the cream of celery soup--let me know if you figure it out!

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb asparagus, tough ends trimmed

1 (10 ounce) can cream of celery soup
1 cup cheddar cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 and grease a rectangular casserole dish.
  • Chop asparagus and ham into bite-size pieces.
  • Combine rice, asparagus and ham in casserole dish.
  • Combine soup and stock and pour over casserole.

ICELANDIC ASPARAGUS & HAM BAKE



Icelandic Asparagus & Ham Bake image

This tasty & versatile dish is very popular in Iceland & uses common ingredients. It is ideal for a brunch, luncheon entree or potluck occasion & also works for a dinner meal when combined w/a salad & crusty bread. Another popular variation skips the use of bread + the reserved liquids & combines the remaining ingredients to use as a filling for tartlet shells that can be served as a starter course or brunch & luncheon entree ... hence its versatility. I hope you will give this dish a try & enjoy it as we do here in Iceland. :-)

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 45m

Yield 8 Wedges, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 slices sandwich bread (white or wheat, lrg size & not thin-sliced, cut or torn in roughly 3/4 in pieces)
2 eggs
14 ounces cream cheese (softened)
1/2 lb ham (diced, Deli-type pkg is fine & a larger or smaller amt is fine as well)
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 (8 ounce) can mushrooms (stems & pieces, chopped, drained & liquid reserved)
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can asparagus (cut spears, drained & liquid reserved)
1 cup cheddar cheese (finely shredded)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) w/oven rack placed in the center position of the oven.
  • Lightly grease a 9-in rd baking dish (or spray w/PAM type spray) & set aside.
  • Place cut or torn bread pieces in a lrg mixing bowl & add liquid reserved from draining the mushrooms & asparagus.
  • Allow bread/liquid mixture to sit for a short time while liquid is absorbed & stir as needed (May add milk if more liquid is required to completely moisten the bread pieces, but it is unlikely to be needed.).
  • Add eggs to bread mixture & mix well.
  • Add cream cheese, ham, mayo, mushrooms & asparagus to the bread mixture & mix very well to combine (This will break up the asparagus pieces & is what you want to happen).
  • Pour mixture into baking dish. Sprinkle surface evenly w/shredded cheddar cheese & use your hand to press it lightly into the surface.
  • Bake for 30-40 min or till golden brown & tests done using a sharp knife in the center. Tent w/foil as needed during baking if browning faster than expected. Serve at once or set aside at rm temp & reheat in microwave as needed.
  • NOTE: Seasonings of choice can be added to suit individual preferences (esp pepper & garlic). My experience was the combo of canned mushrooms & asparagus + the reserved liquid used + the ham meant that no added salt was needed.

Tips:

- For the best flavor and tender-crisp texture, choose fresh asparagus spears that are bright green, firm, and have tightly closed tips. - To prepare the asparagus, snap off and discard the tough woody ends, then rinse the spears under cold water. - If you are using thick asparagus spears, you may need to peel the lower portion of the stalk to remove any tough fibers. - When cooking the asparagus, do not overcook it, as it will lose its flavor and texture quickly. Aim for a tender-crisp texture. - To blanch the asparagus, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the asparagus and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the asparagus is bright green and tender-crisp. Immediately remove the asparagus from the boiling water and transfer it to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. - When making the ham and asparagus bundles, wrap the asparagus spears tightly with the ham slices. This will help to keep the asparagus moist and flavorful during cooking. - To ensure that the ham and asparagus bundles cook evenly, place them in a single layer in a baking dish. - Serve the ham and asparagus bundles immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or garnish.
