In a medium sized bowl combine the soy sauce, garlic, sesame and chili oils, vinegar, hoison, and sesame seeds. 3. Thoroughly coat the steak with the marinade and allow to marinate for 30 minutes. 4. In a separate bowl, combine the mayo with the sriracha and lime juice. Set aside. 5. Heat a large pan ( or grill pan ) over high heat with a small amount of oil. Lightly toast the tortillas on each side for about 10 seconds to get them nice and hot. Set them aside. 6.
