Chicken thighs, breasts, or pork loin chops:
- Pat dry with a paper towel; season with salt and pepper and the allspice.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons neutral oil until hot but not smoking. Add the meat and cook, turning occasionally, until lightly browned and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board to cool slightly, then cut crosswise into ½-inch-thick slices.
Chicken, steak, or pork strips:
- Cut a small corner from the packaging and drain off any excess liquid. Transfer the meat to a plate; pat dry with a paper towel. Season lightly with salt and pepper and the allspice.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons neutral oil until hot but not smoking. Add the meat strips and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and just cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes for steak or pork and 6 to 8 minutes for chicken. Transfer to a plate.
Tofu:
- Pat dry with a paper towel; cut into ½-inch cubes. Season with salt and pepper and the allspice.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons neutral oil until hot but not smoking. Add the tofu and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and heated through, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
Plant-based chicken:
- Pat dry with a paper towel; season with salt and pepper and the allspice.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons neutral oil until hot but not smoking. Add the plant-based chicken and cook, turning occasionally, until browned and heated through, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
