Method

1. Cut the chicken breast into small, even-sized bites.
2. Slice the bell peppers into thin strips.
3. Heat a non-stick pan with the olive oil over medium-high heat.
4. Add the peppers and sauté for 5-6 minutes until slightly softened.
5. Add the chicken bites to the pan and sear until golden on all sides, about 6-7 minutes.
6. Season generously with freshly ground black pepper and salt.
7. Deglaze the pan with the lemon juice and cook for another minute until a light sauce forms.
8. Serve immediately while the chicken is juicy.

Tips

• Toast the black pepper in the dry pan for 30 seconds before adding oil to intensify its aroma.
• If the chicken starts to dry out, add a tablespoon of water or vegetable stock when deglazing.
