1
Chop the Ingredients
Dice the fresh tomatoes, finely chop the red onion, and cilantro. Remove the seeds from the jalapeño peppers and finely chop them.
2
Mix the Salsa
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño peppers.
3
Season the Salsa
Add the lime juice, salt, and black pepper to the bowl and mix well. Adjust seasoning to taste.
4
Chill the Salsa
Cover the salsa and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

5
Prepare the Oil
In a large, deep skillet or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
6
Cut the Tortillas
Cut each corn tortilla into triangles (about 6 pieces per tortilla).
7
Fry the Chips
Carefully add tortilla triangles to the hot oil in small batches, frying until they are golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch.
8
Drain the Chips
Remove the chips with a slotted spoon and drain them on paper towels. Season with salt while still hot.
