1
Prepare the Tortillas
Stack the corn tortillas on a cutting board and cut them into triangular shapes (quarters).
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 tortilla triangles to the hot oil in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
4
Drain and Season
Using a slotted spoon, remove the chips from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain. Sprinkle with salt immediately while still hot.

5
Chop the Ingredients
Dice the fresh tomatoes, red onion, and jalapeño pepper (remove seeds for less heat). Finely chop the cilantro.
6
Mix the Salsa
In a medium bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, red onion, chopped cilantro, and jalapeño pepper.
7
Add Seasoning
Pour in the lime juice and sprinkle with salt. Mix well to combine all ingredients.
8
Let it Rest
Allow the salsa to sit for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors meld before serving.
