Ingredients
Preparation method
Preparation and marinating
Cut the chicken breast fillet into thin, bite-sized strips. In a bowl, mix together 1 tablespoon of soy sauce with 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil, then toss the meat in the mixture and let it rest for 5-10 minutes.
Wash the lemons thoroughly: zest the yellow peel of one, then squeeze the juice from both. In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice with the honey, the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, and about 50 ml of water to create a silky sauce base.
Finely grate the garlic and ginger, and cut the spring onions diagonally into thin slices, separating the white and green parts.
Chef's tip
Only grate the outermost yellow layer of the lemon peel, avoiding the bitter white pith, so the sauce maintains a fresh, clean citrus flavor.
If you prefer an even crispier texture, you can coat the chicken strips in a touch of extra cornstarch before frying.
