Mix 1 tbsp of the soy with 2 tbsp of the honey and after 30 minutes brush the mixtures over the breasts. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and continue to brush 2 times.
Optionally switch on the grill for a couple of minutes. Be careful not to burn it. For a more rosy result, reduce the baking time.
Meanwhile grate the rind from 1 mandarin and sqeeze it. Squeeze a second one and mix together the rind, juice and cornflour in a saucepan.
