In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork pieces and season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and diced jalapeños. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
