Chicken nuggets in lemon sauce

Cut the meat into roughly 2cm pieces, place in a bowl, add salt, pepper, and egg white, and mix well. Let stand for 10 minutes. Squeeze the lemon and mix it in a small bowl with the honey, water, soy sauce, and a teaspoon of cornstarch. Add the flour and cornstarch to the meat and mix well until the meat is well coated. Heat oil in a pan or saucepan (enough to cover about half the meat) and cook the nuggets for about 3 minutes on each side. Drain slightly on kitchen paper or something similar. Stir the sauce mixture again and heat in a pan until thickened. Add the nuggets and toss them in the sauce. Garnish with some sesame seeds and lemon slices, if desired.
