Preparation
Step 1
In a large, shallow dish, whisk the soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, honey, onion and habañero, plus salt and pepper, to taste. Add the meat, cover and refrigerate.
Marinate for at least 1 hour, but preferably for several hours.
Combine all salsa ingredients in a bowl and set aside. Let sit for at least 20 minutes so the flavors will develop.
Simmer beans, olive oil, wine and jalapeño in a saucepan for 20 minutes.
Heat 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Carefully slide one tortilla into the oil and fry until crisp, about 1 to 2 minutes. Remove with tongs and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining tortillas. (Or follow package directions for heating tostada shells in oven.)
Preheat a grill or a grill pan to medium-high heat. Remove meat from dish and discard marinade. Place steak on the grill, and grill for about 4 to 6 minutes for medium-rare to medium, turning once. Remove from the grill and let meat rest for about 5 minutes. Thinly slice, at a diagonal, into strips.
To serve, place fried tortillas or tostadas on a large platter or individual plates. Drain the bean mixture, then spoon some onto the middle of the tortillas. Top with steak slices and the mango salsa. Garnish with optional sour cream and grated cheese, if desired.
