- Add mushrooms and green capsicum to same frying pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the green onions and stir-fry 1 minute more.
- Return chicken to pan, together with reserved marinade, and stir over medium high heat for another 2 to 4 minutes, or until the ingredients are evenly coated with the sauce.
