In the same skillet, add the red, green, and yellow bell pepper slices.

Step 7

Cook the bell peppers, stirring occasionally, for about 4-5 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.

Step 8

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the bell peppers.

Step 9

Add the chopped spring onions and toss everything together.

Step 10

Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
