Instructions

  1. Cut the meat into pieces about 2 cm in size, place in a bowl, add salt, pepper and egg white and mix well. Let it steep for 10 minutes.
  2. Squeeze the lemon and mix in a small bowl with the honey, water, soy sauce and a teaspoon of starch.
  3. Add the flour and starch to the meat and mix well until the whole meat is well covered.
  4. Heat the oil in a pan or saucepan (enough to cover the meat about halfway) and cook the nuggets for about 3 minutes on both sides. Let something drain on kitchen paper or something similar.
  5. Stir the sauce mixture again and heat in a pan until it thickens and add the nuggets and turn in the sauce. To garnish, add some sesame seeds and, if necessary, lemon wedges.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
