Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Tortillas
Cut each corn tortilla into 6 triangular pieces using a sharp knife or kitchen scissors.
- 2
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by adding a small piece of tortilla; it should sizzle immediately.
Cooking
- 3
Fry the Tortilla Chips
Carefully add a handful of tortilla pieces to the hot oil. Fry them for about 2-3 minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pan.

Drain and Season
Using a slotted spoon, remove the chips from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. While they are still hot, sprinkle with salt and drizzle with lime juice to taste.
