Do yourself a favor and don't leave off the garnishes. The only change I made is that I had a mix of baby spinach and baby arugula. Very tasty.

i had to make a few changes based on ingredients on hand but nothing major. i used chicken instead of pork because i had it, i also coated the chicken with panko to give it a bit of texture. i thought i had sherry wine but i didnt so i subbed with 2 tbs white wine & 2 tbs sweet rice wine. after the chicken was cooked i put it in another dish, turned the heat off & the tossed the spinach & pasta together in the skillet to slightly wilt. topped with the chicken & we had a great meal! next time i would probably use a japanese noodle instead of the pasta. thanks for adding this one elmotoo, you picked a good'in.
