0 of 8 done- Dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Finely chop the onion and garlic. Cut the red and yellow bell peppers into strips.
- Heat the olive oil in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 3 minutes.
