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.
