- Make the Sauce: In a wok or large pan, combine dark soy sauce, honey, sriracha, and lemon juice. Heat until the sauce starts to bubble.
- Stir Fry: Add the fried chicken pieces to the sauce, tossing to coat evenly. Add the chopped spring onions and stir fry for another 2 minutes.
- Serve: Serve hot, garnished with extra spring onions if desired.
