8. Final Cook: Let everything cook together for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender.
9. Garnish: Remove from heat. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions, if desired.
10. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Chicken Zucchini Stir Fry hot from the skillet.
