Method
 

  1. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat until hot.
  2. Add chicken and cook until golden and fully cooked through.
  3. Remove chicken and sauté vegetables until tender yet slightly crisp.
  4. Return chicken to skillet and add seasoning, mixing evenly.
  5. Cook briefly until everything is heated and well combined.

Notes

Cook chicken less for softer texture or longer for firmer bite. Freeze cooked protein separately for best results. Handle gently when mixing to retain moisture. Customize flavors with spices or sauces. Store leftovers refrigerated up to three days and reheat gently to avoid drying out.
