I'd say a ham steak would be good... or maybe a spiral sliced ham

If you don't mind the milk/meat combo (since you are serving creamy tomato soup, I'm guessing some dairy there), then I would go with a roast chicken.

Your menu sounds great.

I'm impressed with any kids that will eat kale and brussel sprout salad.

Or if you want a protein that's veg, and very Chanukah friendly, try falafel. You can make the dough in advance and just fry before serving.

Just get a chicken that's big enough so that it can be left cooking while you're gone. Really small ones are done in 2 hours I think.

Roast chicken! Ina Garten's lemon chicken recipe would be perfect.
