A few quick notes
1. Have the finishing ingredients ready
Some of the finishing happens after the pan comes off the heat. Have those ingredients ready and follow that order, rather than adding everything at the beginning.
2. Keep the lid step in mind
Have the lid or covering ready before you need it. Follow the covered and uncovered parts of the method in their own order, especially when the finish changes partway through.
3. Set up the coating steps in order
Read the coating sequence and set its ingredients out in that order. Keep the preparation and cooking steps separate so you can finish each piece the same way.

The last little job
Keep the last little job in mind
The recipe finishes with this step: Remove from heat, stir in the remaining ingredients and serve immediately. Set out what you need for that finish before the cooking gets busy.
A little more help as you go
Give the simmer its place
Keep the simmering stage in the sequence when planning the meal. Follow the heat and texture checks in that step rather than rushing straight to the finish.
Keep the first boil and the next step together
Read what happens once the mixture comes to a boil. Have the next ingredient or heat adjustment ready, and continue with the sequence the recipe gives.
Fold in at the stated step
Have the ingredient for folding in ready before you need it. Follow that mixing step as written, rather than putting every ingredient into the bowl at the start.
