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. Keep an eye on the broiler finish
The broiler is a separate finishing job. Read that part before serving, get the dish ready as directed, and stay with the finish instead of treating it as another long oven step.

Have the pan ready for its first job

Remember the occasional stir
Keep the pan where you can return for the stirring step in the method. Use the stated heat and finish check while it warms or cooks.
