I would make this again, but I would make a few changes. I would use a thicker ham steak and I would cook it for a shorter amount of time.

I'm not a big fan of ham, but I thought this recipe was pretty good. The pears added a nice sweetness and the brown sugar glaze was a nice touch.

The pears were not as tender as I would have liked. I think I would have preferred it if they had been cooked for a longer amount of time.

I found the ham steak to be a bit dry. I think I would have preferred it if it had been cooked for a shorter amount of time.

This was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it without the brown sugar glaze.
