Season the chicken breast pieces generously with salt and pepper, add them to the skillet and cook over high heat for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden and just barely cooked through.
Transfer the chicken pieces to the plate with the oyster mushrooms.
Add 1 tablespoon of canola oil to the skillet along with the bok choy and red pepper and cook over high heat for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender.
Transfer the vegetables to the plate.
