Bulking without losing too much definition?

Hey everyone!
Is there a specific way to gain lean muscle mass, while limiting the amount of fat gain? I know fat is inevitable when bulking, but my goal was to remain as defined as I am now (or close to it) while adding size and strength.
Is this a pipe dream or is it possible?

The smaller the surplus you are in the less fat you will gain. You don't have to be in a huge surplus to gain muscle.0

200-300 extra daily calories will see you gain slowly and avoid as much fat gain as possible.
The best way, is to get as lean as you can (10% or lower) before you start bulking.0 -
Don't get fat.
Small surplus, slow bulk, acknowledge that you will gain a bit of fat.0 -
I appreciate the info guys, time to get at it!0
