In a small microwave-safe bowl, mix together soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Microwave on medium for 1 minute, then stir. Heat for an additional 30 seconds, keeping an eye on it to avoid boiling.

Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish. Pour the soy sauce mixture over the chicken and let it marinate for 15 minutes.

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. While heating, remove the chicken from the marinade and transfer the marinade into a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for about 1 minute until thickened. Set aside for basting.

Grill the chicken on the preheated grill, frequently basting with the reserved marinade, until golden brown on all sides and the center is no longer pink, approximately 6 to 8 minutes per side. Use an instant-read thermometer to check the thickest part of the chicken; it should register at least 160°F (70°C).
