Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 pound fully cooked ham slice, cut in half
  • 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch

Method

  • In a microwave-safe baking dish, combine the orange juice, brown sugar, orange zest and ginger. Add ham slice, turning to coat with sauce. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
  • Cover and microwave on high for 1 minute on each side. Microwave at 50% power for 2 minutes, spooning sauce over ham once. Remove ham and keep warm.
