Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Chips

    Cut the corn tortillas into triangles. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

    Fry the tortilla triangles in batches until they are golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Season the Chips

    While the chips are still warm, sprinkle them with salt.

  4. 4

    Make the Salsa

    In a bowl, combine diced tomatoes, chopped onion, chopped cilantro, minced jalapeño, lime juice, and salt. Mix well.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the chips warm with the salsa on the side.
