Method
Heat the grill and place the gammon steaks on a rack over a baking tray lined with foil.
Place the plums, red onion, garlic, red pepper, olives and thyme in a bowl. Add the Balsamic vinegar, olive oil and lemon juice and stir well. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Grill the gammon steaks for 4-5 minutes each side or until cooked through.
