Sticky 5-Spice Gammon

This is delicious and really quick and easy. It's taken from the Slimming World recipe book 'Extra Easy, Meals in Minutes'

Serves 4
1 Syn on Extra Easy
1 Syn on Original
13 Syns on Green

Freezer Friendly and ready in about 15-20 minutes (if you have everything to hand!)

Ingredients
2 tsp Chinese 5-Spice powder
4 x 175g gammon steak with all the fat removed cut into large bite-sized pieces
Low calorie cooking spray
2 red chillies, deseeded and finely sliced (I used the cheating chillie in a tube!)
Finely grated zest and juice of an orange
1 level tbsp of clear honey
100 ml of chicken stock
2 tbsp dark soy sauce
Pak choi to serve
Egg noodles to serve

Sprinkle the 5-spice powder over the cut up gammon steaks. Spray a large wide, non-stick frying pan with low calorie cooking spray and cook the gammon over a high heat for 2-3 minutes or until the edges are tinged brown.

Add the red chillies, orange zest and juice, honey, stock and soy sauce and simmer rapidly for 4-5 minutes or until the sauce becomes sticky and the gammon is glazed and golden with almost burn edges. (I felt this took a bit longer than stated, but go with your gut instinct!)

Serve immediately with steamed pak choi and cooked egg noodles, and any pan juices poured over.

The glaze works well with pork or chicken too!
