Steps:
- Mix together marinade, and mix together cornstarch paste.
- Cut the fish into 1/2-inch slices and put in a bowl with marinade; mix well and set aside.
- Drain and squeeze the mushrooms; remove the stems and slice the caps.
- Cut the red and green peppers into 3/4-inch strips, and then diagonally into lozenge shapes.
