- Cook the potatoes: Toss halved potatoes with olive oil, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper. Arrange cut-side down on a greased sheet pan and roast until starting to soften.
- Make the honey-mustard sauce: Whisk honey, whole-grain mustard, a splash of vinegar, rosemary and garlic powder until smooth.
- Add the ham: Move potatoes to one side, arrange ham steaks on the sheet pan (slightly overlapping if needed) and brush with the honey-mustard glaze.
- Add the green beans: Toss trimmed green beans with a little olive oil, salt and pepper and add them to the pan alongside the ham and potatoes. Roast until the beans are tender and the ham is warmed through.
- Serve: Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or extra rosemary and serve immediately while hot.
Substitutions and Variations
- Vegetables: Swap green beans for broccoli, asparagus, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower or carrots.
- Herbs and seasonings: Use fresh thyme instead of rosemary, or combine dried herbs if fresh isn’t available. Add onion powder or extra fresh garlic to the glaze for more depth.
- Potatoes: Try sweet potatoes or a mix of sweet potatoes and baby potatoes for a slightly sweeter profile.
Serving Suggestions
This sheet pan meal is mostly complete on its own, since it includes protein, starch and vegetables. For extra flair, top each ham slice with a pineapple ring or serve with a simple side salad. Light desserts like mousse cups or fruit-based treats pair well after a hearty sheet pan dinner.
