directions

  • In medium saucepan, combine wine, onion and thyme. Bring to a boil; redure heat and simmer uncovered 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Set aside 1 cup for serving sauce.
  • Place ham in a shallow baking pan; score by making diagonal cuts, about 1/8" deep, in a diamond pattern in surface of ham. Sprinkle with pepper and rub into surface cuts with fingers. Brush ham with 3 Tbsp honey.
  • Pour 1/4 c of the wine mixture over ham and bake in centre of pre-heated 350F oven for 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours or until an instant read thermometer inserted in the thickest portion (not touching the bone) registers 140F or 15 to 18 minutes per pound, basting every 30 minutes with 1/4 cup of the remaining wine mixture.
  • Remove ham from oven. Transfer to a cutting board and loosely cover with foil. Let rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing. Discard wine mixture in pan.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of remaining wine mixture and chicken broth. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Cook uncovered until reduced to 1 cup. Stir cornstarch into remaining 1/2 cup wine mixture and then stir into hot wine-broth mixture. Add remaining 2 Tbsp honey and butter. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer uncovered for 2 minutes, stirring occasionaly.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm retired and loving every minute. Don't know where I found the time to go to work! Moved from Vancouver, BC in 2007 back to home town of Cornwall, Ontario. I'm active in the local New Comers' Club and a small chapter of the Red Hat Society.
