A few quick notes

1. 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.

2. Keep the resting step

Leave the resting or standing step in place when planning the finish. Use that moment to get the serving things ready, and follow the method before cutting, stirring or serving.

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.

Which little step is worth remembering?

What check should I look for as it cooks?

Keep this part of the method in view: Place pork on the grill and cook each side for 2 minutes, or until cooked (depends on thickness of the cutlets).

Is there another preparation step to plan for?

Keep the refrigerator at 40°F or below, use refrigerated leftovers within 3–4 days, and reheat hot leftovers to 165°F, checked with a food thermometer. Follow any shorter package limit.
