This orange chipotle glazed ham may very well be one of the easiest recipes to make! Warm up a simple glaze made from orange juice and marmalade, slather it on cured ham, heat it in the oven, and your special dinner is ready to serve!
Why I Love This Glazed Ham Recipe
Ham is probably one of the most traditional main dishes to serve for Easter, and there’s a good reason: it’s so easy to prepare. Since ham is usually cured when purchased, the preparation typically includes preparing a glaze and heating the whole thing in the oven.
Once ready to serve, the ham is sliced into individual pieces. But this recipe makes things even easier with boneless ham quarters. Before the glaze is layered over the ham, I love to slice the ham into pieces and arrange everything in a baking dish. Once the glaze is warmed through, it’s poured over the top of the slices and placed in the oven to heat. Talk about an easy but beautiful main dish!
The ham can be prepared right before you’re ready to heat it through, or assembled in the baking dish and placed into the oven until it’s time to pop it in the oven. And the orange chipotle glaze that’s drizzled on top adds such a depth of complex flavor.
No one has to know how easy this main dish was to prepare!
