1
Cut Tortillas
Stack the corn tortillas and cut them into triangles to form chips.
2
Heat the Oil
In a large frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
3
Fry the Chips
Carefully add the tortilla triangles to the hot oil in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
4
Drain and Cool
Use a slotted spoon to remove the chips from the oil and drain them on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt while they are still hot.

5
Chop Ingredients
Dice the ripe tomatoes, red onion, and jalapeño pepper (removing seeds if less heat is desired).
6
Mix Salsa
In a medium bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño, and chopped cilantro.
7
Add Seasoning
Pour in the lime juice and sprinkle with salt. Mix well to combine all the flavors.
8
Chill
Let the salsa sit for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
