- Add the butter to a large skillet set over medium-low heat. Once the butter is melted, add the ham steaks and cook for 3-5 minutes per side, or until lightly browned.

- Place the pineapple pieces around the ham (see notes). Spoon half of the glaze over the ham, spreading it around, flip, then add the remaining glaze.

- Transfer the ham to serving plates, then spoon or brush any remaining glaze on top. Top with the pineapple pieces.
Notes
- If there’s not enough room in the skillet for the pineapple pieces, set them aside while cooking the ham. After removing the ham from the skillet, stir the pineapple pieces to coat with the glaze.
