  • Important! The wrong skillet can ruin even the best recipe. For all the details on choosing the perfect pan for different dishes, see here.
  • You can make this dish with any meat, not just pork. Keep in mind that the cooking time, flavor, and calorie count will change — beef, for example, takes longer than pork, while chicken breast or turkey cooks faster.
  • Since everyone's sense of salty, sweet, bitter, spicy, and sour is different, always add spices and seasonings to your own taste. If you're using a seasoning for the first time, remember that some are easy to overdo — chili pepper, for example.
