Ingredients:

To start, marinate the chicken strips in the lemon juice, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and lemon zest for at least 30 minutes. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Cook the marinated chicken strips until they are browned and cooked through.

Next, add the sliced bell peppers and onion to the pan with the chicken. Stir-fry the vegetables until they are tender-crisp. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve the zesty lemon chicken stir-fry over cooked rice.
