Easy Citrus Ham

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. Cook: 4 hours + standing YIELD: 12 servings.
I created this recipe many years ago with items I already had on hand. Since then, it has become a family favorite. The ham is succulent with a mild citrus flavor. I was asked to share the recipe with a church social and there were so many raves, I knew the recipe was a winner! —Sheila Christensen, San Marcos, California
