Ingredients

• 1 piece (approximately 1-inch thick, 8-10 ounces) Ham slice
• 1 cup (diced) Pineapple
• 1 small (diced) Red bell pepper
• 0.25 cup (finely chopped) Red onion
• 2 tablespoons (chopped) Cilantro
• 1 tablespoon Lime juice
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

Step 2

Lightly brush the ham slice with olive oil on both sides to prevent sticking and enhance the grill marks.

Step 3

Place the ham slice on the preheated grill. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until heated through and lightly caramelized. Remove from the grill and set aside to rest.

Step 4

While the ham cooks, prepare the pineapple salsa by combining the diced pineapple, red bell pepper, red onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, honey, salt, and black pepper in a medium mixing bowl. Stir well to combine.

Step 5

Taste the salsa and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more lime juice for tartness or honey for additional sweetness, depending on your preference.

Step 6

Transfer the grilled ham slice to a serving plate and top generously with the freshly prepared pineapple salsa.

Step 7

Serve immediately and enjoy this sweet and savory combination!
