Ingredients

  • 12 corn tortillas 5 to 6-inch, yellow or white
  • 1 Tbsp. oil olive, vegetable or avocado
  • 1 tsp. lime juice optional
  • ½ tsp. salt to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Whisk together oil, lime juice and salt in a small bowl.
  • Brush oil mixture over both sides of each tortilla using a pastry brush.
  • Cut each corn tortilla into 4 or 6 triangles using a knife or pizza cutter.
  • Place tortilla triangles in a single layer on two large baking sheets. It's OK if some of them overlap slightly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes if using a light baking sheet or 8-11 minutes if using a dark baking sheet.
  • You’ll know the tortilla chips are done baking when they are crisp and golden.

Notes

  • To Store:  Once your freshly baked tortilla chips have completely cooled, place them in a large 1-gallon sized ziplock bag.  They will last for up to 3-4 days at room temperature.
  • To Reheat:  If the chips start to get a bit soft after storing, simply pop them into a 375 degree oven for a few minutes to crisp them back up.
