Make the Chips
Cut the corn tortillas into triangles and heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, fry the tortilla triangles in batches until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels; sprinkle with salt to taste.

Prepare the Salsa
In a medium bowl, combine diced Roma tomatoes, finely chopped onion, chopped fresh cilantro, lime juice, finely chopped jalapeño pepper (remove seeds for less heat), minced garlic, and salt. Stir well to combine and let sit for at least 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
