Instructions
Orange-Honey Glaze
- Add all ingredients in a medium-sized saucepan and whisk together; then boil on medium-high heat, immediately reducing to medium heat.
- Cook on medium heat for 15 minutes until the glaze is reduced in volume by 1/3 and has a syrupy consistency.
- Remove from stove and cool glaze to room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes.
Orange-Honey Glazed Ham
- Thaw ham in refrigerator for 26 to 28 hours until completely thawed.
- Remove ham from packaging and place ham on a roasting rack in a roaster pan, cut-side down. Allow ham to come to room temperature on counter for 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit, add a cup of water to the bottom of the roasting pan, and then place in the center rack and cover with aluminum foil.
- Bake 60 minutes, then remove foil.
- Cook ham for another 30 minutes, uncovered; glaze ham with orange-honey glaze once every 8 minutes (glaze ham 3 times for last 30 minutes of cook time).
- Carefully broil the ham for 3 to 5 minutes, until slightly crisp. Watch ham very closely during this step to prevent overcooking.
- The internal temperature of the ham should be 140 degrees Fahrenheit via meat thermometer and nicely glazed and lacquered. Allow the ham to rest for about 20 minutes and serve with the remaining glaze on the side.
Roasted Garlic Parmesan Carrots
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Boil carrots for 2 minutes, strain, and place on a large baking sheet. Toss the carrots with olive oil, garlic, rosemary, and salt and pepper.
- Arrange carrots in one single layer on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 10 minutes. Take carrots out and toss them before placing them back into the oven for an additional 10 minutes.
- Top carrots with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and parsley. Roast for 2 to 3 minutes until the cheese is fully melted.
- Remove carrots from oven and serve hot.
