1
To make the hoisin glaze: In a small bowl, stir together the hoisin sauce, soy sauce and honey. Transfer half of the sauce to a glass dish (like Pyrex) or a large zip-top plastic bag. Add the steak and turn to coat. Refrigerate up to 24 hours. Reserve the remaining sauce to serve with the wraps.
2
Preheat the grill or a stove-top grill pan. When hot, remove the skirt steak from the marinade and grill until medium, about 5 minutes per side, depending on the steak's thickness. (Discard the remaining marinade.) Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes loosely covered with foil. Slice the steak thinly.
3
To serve, place a few slices of steak, 4 or 5 mint leaves, 2 or 3 cilantro sprigs, some shredded carrot and additional hoisin glaze in a lettuce leaf. Fold like a taco or burrito and enjoy.
