Thinly slice the lemon grass or lemon rind. Peel and chop the ginger and garlic. Heat the oil in a frying pan over a high heat. Add the lemon grass or lemon rind, ginger and garlic, and stir-fry for 30 seconds until brown.
Add the chicken and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Then add all the vegetables and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes, until the chicken is cooked and the vegetables are almost cooked.
