Tips:
- To ensure the ham steak is cooked evenly throughout, use a meat thermometer to check its internal temperature. It should reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium.
- For a sweeter flavor, use ripe pears. Bosc pears are a good choice as they hold their shape well when cooked.
- To prevent the pears from browning, toss them in a mixture of lemon juice and water before cooking.
- If you don't have balsamic vinegar, you can substitute another type of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar.
- To add a bit of extra flavor to the dish, sprinkle some chopped fresh herbs, such as rosemary or thyme, over the pears before baking.
Conclusion:
Pear-Topped Ham Steak is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The sweet pears and tangy balsamic vinegar complement the savory ham steak perfectly.
