Grand Curaçao Orange Glazed Ham Recipe | Club Foody

 

Easter is just around the corner and you’re probably wondering what to serve your guests – perhaps a nice Crown Roast of Pork or a Prime Rib. What about a nice juicy Leg of Lamb or a flaky grilled Salmon… even Paella can be a good dish to make. Like most everyone, you might just go for the traditional ham like my Brown Sugar Mustard Glazed Ham…
 
Surprise! I also have another amazing recipe… my Grand Curaçao Orange Glazed Ham! This is just incredible! What makes this ham so flavorful is the glaze. It’s a delicious blend of earthy, sweet, tangy and buttery which marries perfectly with this protein although pork tenderloin, pork chops, chicken/duck or even fish can be a good candidate for this yummy glaze!
 
For the making of this succulent recipe, I use my homemade Citrus Marmalade. Besides spreading it on your toast in the morning, it’s also a great condiment to have on hand to use for other recipes. I make a lovely homemade Marmalade Dressing with it or even Popsicles. Similar but different, I have my Roast Duck with Marmalade Glaze that I enjoy serving often.
 
Making the glaze is quite fast as it takes less than 5 minutes. While it’s cooling off, the ham can be prepped. Prior to transferring it to the oven, half of the glaze is brushed on over the ham. About 5 minutes before the internal temperature of the ham reaches 125ºF, the glaze has to warm up so we can brush on more when we take it out of the oven. The meat is returned to the oven for another 15 minutes while the glaze is kept warm (not boiling). We brush on the remaining, cover with foil and let the Grand Curaçao Orange Glazed Ham rest for 15 to 20 minutes.
 
As the title of this recipe indicates, I use Grand Curaçao but other orange liqueurs can be substituted like Triple Sec, Cointreau or Grand Marnier. Although similar, I personally prefer the taste of the Grand Curaçao for this recipe… If you want this recipe to be alcohol-free, simply substitute with freshly squeezed orange juice.
 
Easter is a nice time to get together with friends and family. If ham is what you have in mind then don’t hesitate to try this fabulous and elegant Grand Curaçao Orange Glazed Ham! There’s not too much prep involved and the results are so flavorful! I like serving it with my Scalloped Potatoes and steamed vegetables…
Bon Appétit!
