  • In a small bowl, mix together the seasoning ingredients. You can divide each of them in half and mix them in two different bowls, as I do in the video below. Half will season the veggies and half will season the chicken.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat, about 2 minutes. Add the bell peppers, the onions, and half the seasoning mix. Cook, stirring often, until just tender, about 5 minutes. If the bottom of the skillet becomes too dry, add a little water, a tablespoon at a time. You can also reduce the heat to medium.
  • Using a slotted spoon, remove the vegetables to a plate. Add the remaining oil to the skillet, then add the chicken slices with the second half of the seasonings. Stir-fry until the chicken is almost fully cooked, about 4 minutes. Again, if the bottom of the skillet becomes too dry while you cook the chicken, add a little water.
  • Return the vegetables to the skillet. Stir-fry everything together for 1-2 more minutes, until the chicken is fully cooked and the dish is heated through.
