Cooking Steps
- Begin by chopping your chicken into bite-sized pieces, alongside your bell peppers, onion, and broccoli.
- In a bowl, combine soy sauce, ginger, and garlic to make a marinade. Add the chicken, ensuring all pieces are coated, and let it marinate for 15-30 minutes.
- Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and sauté until golden brown and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.

- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper, and stir until everything is heated through. Serve over rice or noodles.
