Method
Chips
Prepare the Tortillas
Cut each corn tortilla into 6 wedges to form chips.
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet or deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Fry the Chips
Working in batches, add the tortilla wedges to the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Remove them with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Season the Chips
While the chips are still hot, sprinkle them with salt to taste.
Salsa
Combine the Ingredients
In a medium bowl, mix the chopped tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño together.
Add Lime Juice and Salt
Pour the lime juice over the mixture and add salt. Stir well to combine all the flavors.
Let it Rest
Allow the salsa to sit for at least 15 minutes for the flavors to meld before serving.
