Prep the sauce:

* In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, oyster sauce (if using), honey or brown sugar, black pepper, and paprika

* Set aside

Cook the chicken:

* Heat olive oil or butter in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat

* Add cubed chicken and cook until browned and fully cooked (about 5–7 minutes)

* Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside

Sauté the veggies:

* In the same skillet, add a bit more oil if needed

* Sauté the garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant

* Add sliced mushrooms and bell peppers

* Cook until veggies are tender-crisp and mushrooms are golden (about 4–5 minutes)

Bring it all together:

* Return the cooked chicken to the skillet

* Pour in the sauce and stir everything to coat well

* Let it simmer for 2–3 minutes so the flavors meld and the sauce thickens slightly

Garnish & serve:

* Sprinkle with chopped parsley or green onions

* Serve hot over steamed rice, quinoa, or noodles
