A few quick notes
1. Give the food its space
Arrange the food in the layer the method calls for. If you increase the portions, check the pan or basket space before cooking so you can keep that arrangement.
2. Give the marinade its turn
Look at the marinating step before you get the rest of dinner going. Keep that preparation in the order the recipe gives, and check the full method for how it fits around the cooking.
3. 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.
