Slice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and set them aside.
In a small bowl, combine black pepper, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Mix well.
Sprinkle the spice mixture over the chicken pieces, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Slice the red and green bell peppers into thin strips, and chop the onion into wedges.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the seasoned chicken pieces to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes until the chicken is browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the onions and bell peppers, and sauté for 4-5 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
Return the chicken to the skillet and stir in the chicken stock.
In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry.
Pour the cornstarch slurry into the skillet, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens.
Reduce the heat and let simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve hot over rice or as desired.
