Baked Honey Ham on Sweet Potato Biscuits with Blackberry-Balsamic Drizzle image

Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 14 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 pound sweet potatoes (2 to 3 potatoes)
2 tablespoons buttermilk
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 sticks cold butter, small diced
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons butter, melted and slightly cooled
14 slices baked honey ham (or your favorite ham), torn into pieces to fit the biscuits
Blackberry Balsamic Drizzle, recipe follows
Arugula, for serving
One 12 to 13-ounce jar blackberry preserves
1 cup packed fresh basil leaves, stems and all
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup yellow mustard, such as French's
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
1 serrano chile, split in half

Steps:

  • For the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Poke the sweet potatoes with the tines of a fork and bake until tender, about 1 hour. Let the potatoes cool, and then peel them, discarding the skins.
  • In a food processor, puree the potatoes with the buttermilk and nutmeg until smooth.
  • Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. With your fingertips or a dough cutter, cut in the cold butter until pea-size chunks are formed. Fold in the sweet potato puree until just combined, being careful not to overwork.
  • Dust a work surface with some flour and turn the biscuit dough onto the counter. Form the dough into a 3/4-inch-thick disc. Using a 2 1/4-inch round biscuit cutter, cut out 14 biscuits, starting on the outside of the disk and working your way in. You may need to reshape the last bits of dough back into a disk to get all 14 rounds.
  • Grease a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with the vegetable oil and place the biscuits in the skillet, working from the center out. The biscuits should be a tight fit and nestled against each other. Brush the biscuit tops with the melted butter and bake until golden, 15 to 18 minutes.
  • For the sandwich build: Split the hot biscuits, place some of the torn ham on the bottom half, drizzle the Blackberry Balsamic Drizzle over the ham and then pile some arugula on top for a peppery bite.
  • Combine the preserves, basil, vinegar, mustard, peppercorns and chile in a medium saucepot on the stove. Set over medium heat. Simmer the sauce until thickened, 7 to 10 minutes. Strain the reduction through a fine sieve. Thin with water if needed.

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Ham: Opt for a fully cooked ham, either bone-in or boneless, weighing around 10-12 pounds. Look for a ham with a good layer of fat, as this will help keep it moist during cooking.
  • Scoring the Ham: Use a sharp knife to score the ham's surface in a diamond pattern. This will allow the glaze to penetrate deeper and create a more flavorful crust.
  • Preparing the Glaze: Combine ingredients like brown sugar, pineapple juice, orange juice, and spices to create a delectable glaze. You can also add a touch of honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness.
  • Glazing the Ham: Brush the ham with the prepared glaze, ensuring it covers the entire surface. Repeat this process several times throughout the cooking time to keep the ham moist and flavorful.
  • Baking the Ham: Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Place the ham in a roasting pan, cover it with foil, and bake for approximately 2 hours per pound. Remove the foil during the last 30 minutes to allow the ham to brown.
  • Cooking the Sweet Potatoes: While the ham bakes, toss sweet potato cubes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast them in a separate pan at 400°F (200°C) for about 30 minutes, or until tender.
  • Serving the Glazed Ham: Allow the ham to rest for about 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Garnish with pineapple slices, cherries, or fresh herbs for an attractive presentation.

This glazed ham with sweet potatoes recipe offers a delectable combination of sweet and savory flavors that will impress your guests during any special occasion.
