Stir Fry for an additional 30sec-1min or until the chicken is nearly cooked through.
Add the beans and continue to stir fry for an additional minute. Keep in one place to add some char on the bottom of the beans/chicken.

When cooking at home, it is best to keep stir fry to 1-2 portions per cook to maintain a high heat on the wok throughout the cooking. Otherwise, you will get an unfavourable stir-boil.
