Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pineapple

    Peel, core, and slice the fresh pineapple into rings, about 1/2 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Ham Steak

    Pat the ham steak dry with paper towels and brush both sides with olive oil. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Grill the Ham Steak

    Place the ham steak on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until heated through and nicely charred.

  3. 5

    Grill the Pineapple

    In the last few minutes of grilling the ham steak, add the pineapple rings to the grill. Grill for 2-3 minutes on each side until caramelized.

Making the Gravy

  1. 6

    Melt the Butter

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until bubbly.

  2. 7

    Make a Roux

    Add the all-purpose flour to the melted butter and whisk constantly for about 1-2 minutes until it turns a light golden color.

  3. 8

    Add Chicken Broth

    Slowly pour in the chicken broth while whisking to prevent lumps. Continue to cook until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

  4. 9

    Season the Gravy

    Stir in the soy sauce, black pepper, and salt to taste. Mix well and remove from heat.

Serving

  1. 10

    Plate the Dish

    Slice the grilled ham steak and serve it with the caramelized pineapple rings on top.

  2. 11

    Add Gravy

    Drizzle the prepared gravy over the ham steak and pineapple before serving.
