Total Time: 1 hour, 15 minutes Prep Time: 30 Minutes Cook Time: 45 Minutes
Ingredients:
Ham and Potatoes:
- 1 each – spiral ham, approximately 5 lbs (Assume 6-8 oz of ham per person and more for leftovers!)
- 3 lbs – small assorted potatoes, cuts in halves or quarters
- Old Bay Seasoning or your favorite spice blend, as needed
- Olive oil, as needed
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Sautéed Broccoli:
- 4 bunches of broccolini or broccoli, trimmed to florets or pieces
- 2 tbsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp crushed red pepper
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Method of Preparation:
Ham and Potatoes:
- Preheat oven to 300ᵒF.
- Rub outside of the ham with your favorite spice blend.
- In a roasting pan, toss the cut potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper
- Place roasting rack over potatoes.
- Place ham on roasting rack and place in the oven for 45 minutes until ham is warm through the center and potatoes are cooked to fork tender.
- Remove roasting pan from the oven, tent with foil and allow to rest.
Sautéed Broccoli:
- Boil large pot of salted water
- Once the ham and potatoes are in the oven (step 5 above) place the broccoli in the boiling water for about 1 – 1.5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
- While the ham is resting heat up olive oil in a pan and add garlic and crushed red pepper. Sauté gently for about 20 seconds.
- Hint: Low heat is key here. The garlic should only be gently sizzling. Remove from heat if your pan is too hot.
- Add broccoli to sauté pan and cook gently until heated through, stirring often to toss with garlic and pepper flakes.
Salt and pepper to taste.
To Serve:
