1 stalk celery
1 carrot
1/2 head broccoli cut into florets
6-8 button mushrooms

Slice up all the vegetables and the mushrooms setting aside the broccoli florets.

Heat 1/2 of the oil in a large heavy based saucepan or in a wok to a high heat. Lightly coat the chicken in the flour and cook until coloured but not cooked through. Set aside.

Lower heat to medium, use the remaining oil and saute the vegetables for about 5 minutes.
