Combine celery, capsicums, and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Let stand at room temperature 10 minutes. Toss with cilantro.
Step 2
Meanwhile, stir together butter, ketchup, and hot sauce in a large bowl.
Step 3
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add chicken, and cook until lightly browned on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Add chicken to hot sauce mixture; toss to coat.
