Every time I saute something on the stove top, I do it with a little bit of olive oil. However, the oil will invariably start to crackle and pop, and little bits of it will hit my arms. I tried turning down the heat, but that doesn't really work. Is there a trick to get the oil not to sputter, or another product entirely that is better for sauteing on the stove top? I apologize if this seems like a very basic question, but I'm a bit of a dunce at cooking. :-)

Turning the heat down helps.Also if adding a cold supstance to the pan,try putting it in before the oil is hot to prevent sizzle. Of course you want the meat to sizzle.Try using a George Foreman grill.You won't need any oil and it browns/cooks on both sides at once.These work nice.They come in different sizes for different families.

Put half olive oil and half butter. It will stop the spattering.
Also...you can purchase a spatter shield (about $10) to put over your saute pan when cooking. I have one and use it all the time to save my arms and stove top from spattering oil.
