Preheat your four at 400 °F

General preparation

Cut pork tenderloin into thin strips. Cut the pineapple into 1.5 cm cubes. Squeeze the lime to get the juice. Roast sesame seeds in oven for 3-4 minutes or until golden and fragrant.
For the skewers

In a small bowl, combine sesame oil, soy sauce, Chinese five spice, lime juice and mustard. Marinate the pork and pineapple in this mixture for 15 minutes to 2 hours in the refrigerator. Drain the marinade well. Thread the pork strips onto bamboo skewers and finish with one or two pineapple cubes. Cook your skewers in the oven or on the BBQ for 6-8 minutes for a pinkish color.
To serve

Drizzle the skewers with honey and sprinkle them with toasted sesame seeds, before arranging them on a serving dish.
