Preparation

Begin by preparing your vegetables: thinly slice the red bell pepper, shred the carrots, cut the green beans, dice the onion, and chop the celery. Cube the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces.

Cooking

Heat a large pan over medium heat. Add the oil and once hot, sauté the onions and celery until slightly translucent. Increase the heat, add the rest of the vegetables, and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until they're vibrant and tender-crisp. Add the chicken, sprinkle with salt and your choice of herbs or spices, and continue to cook for another 3-5 minutes, making sure everything is heated through and evenly mixed.

Serve this sumptuous dish hot, directly from the pan. It's perfect as a standalone meal or as a side to complement your main course.
