Ham steak is a thick-cut portion of cured or smoked ham, typically taken from the leg of the pig. Common in American and European cuisines, it is valued for its rich, savory flavor and quick preparation, often served pan-seared or grilled. Ham steak is a good source of protein, providing essential amino acids that support muscle health. It also offers vitamins like B6, B12, and minerals such as zinc and selenium, important for immune and metabolic functions. However, ham steak is high in sodium due to the curing process, and it may contain added sugars or preservatives depending on preparation methods. Fat content can vary, with leaner options generally found in center-cut varieties. Moderation is key when enjoying ham steak, especially for individuals managing sodium intake or heart health. Pairing it with fresh vegetables can help balance its nutritional profile.
