Preparation

Cooking
  1. Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add sesame oil and sauté the chicken until golden brown and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet.
  2. In the same pan, stir-fry bell peppers, carrots, and green onions until tender yet crisp, about 3-4 minutes.

Notes

For a flavor boost, marinate chicken in soy sauce for 15 minutes. Store leftovers in the fridge for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
