EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Out of cilantro? Chopped Italian parsley is a good substitute.

Freeze leftovers in a freezer-friendly container for up to 4 months. To thaw, place the container in the fridge for about 8 hours, or thaw in the microwave.

For an easy yet elegant Easter dinner, serve this ham with Spring Rice Pilaf, steamed snap pea pods and an assortment of bakery-bought rolls.

This was an awesome Easter recipe! Everyone enjoyed it very much. The only thing I did differently, was use fresh pineapple (instead of canned) and added some fresh cut mango at the end to the sauce as well. Turned out great! Highly recommend it!

I did this recipe. It was wonderful. I made a few changes so as to make it my own because some of the things where hard to find, but it came out well. I will be making it again sometime soon!

Extraordinarily easy to make (if you can find pineapple preserves in the grocery store). Incredible flavor.
