Chicken and Red Pepper Stir Fry

Have done several auditions, and several coming up, I close my show this weekend and my mom and Harmony are visiting this weekend!!! I am too busy for words. But as much as I bitch and stress about it. I like it. Let's be honest. I like my job, I like having a show, I like keeping busy. But I don't have time for most things. For example I haven't had time to properly write this down. I've had this recipe for a while now. It's simple, easy, and I honestly thought  I didn't like stir-fry but this was so good!

Notes: 

- This was really good! I used Lettuce to wrap it up. It was like a Stir-fry Taco. 

- Next time I wanna try this with a few more things. Maybe broccoli or carrots. Maybe fish instead of chicken. 

Enjoy!
