Method
Tortilla Chips
Cut the Tortillas
Stack the corn tortillas and cut them into triangles or desired shapes.
Heat the Oil
In a large frying pan or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.
Fry the Chips
Carefully add the tortilla triangles to the hot oil in batches. Fry them for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
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. Immediately sprinkle with salt while still hot.
Salsa
Mix the Salsa
In a medium bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño pepper, and chopped cilantro.
Add Lime Juice and Season
Pour the lime juice over the vegetable mixture. Add the salt and mix well to combine.
Chill the Salsa
Cover the salsa and let it sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
