FOOD WORKS HAWAIIAN HAM



Food Works Hawaiian Ham image

Technically, this dish isn't a true stir-fry, but the technique is the same. You can use chicken instead of ham, if you prefer, or make a vegan dish with cubes of firm tofu, but these have to be fried up first since they're not pre-cooked like the ham. PROTIP: To speed the sauce thickening, close the lid, but leave a tiny gap at the side so steam can escape. This will heat up the contents of the pan to a higher temperature and the water will boil off faster.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil or 1 tablespoon canola oil
3 large carrots, sliced into thin coins
1 red onion, chopped into 2cm squares

Tips:

  • Choose the right ham. Look for a fully cooked ham that is labeled "Hawaiian" or "Honey Pineapple." You can also use leftover ham from a holiday meal.
  • Use fresh pineapple. Fresh pineapple has a brighter flavor than canned pineapple. If you don't have fresh pineapple, you can use canned pineapple, but be sure to drain it well.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you overcrowd the skillet, the ham and pineapple will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the ham and pineapple until it is browned. This will give the dish a nice caramelized flavor.
  • Serve with rice or noodles. Hawaiian ham skillet is a great dish to serve with rice or noodles. You can also serve it with a side of vegetables.

Conclusion:

Hawaiian ham skillet is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great dish to serve for a party or potluck. The combination of ham, pineapple, and teriyaki sauce is sure to please everyone.
