1
Prepare Tortillas
Stack the corn tortillas and cut them into triangles to create chip shapes.
2
Heat Oil
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.
3
Fry Chips
Carefully add a few tortilla triangles to the hot oil and fry for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pan.
4
Drain and Season
Once crispy, remove the chips with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with salt while still hot.

5
Prepare Vegetables
Dice the tomatoes, onion, and jalapeño pepper. Remove seeds from the jalapeño if you prefer less heat.
6
Mix Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and salt.
7
Adjust Seasoning
Taste the salsa and adjust the seasoning with more salt or lime juice if desired.
8
Chill
Let the salsa sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
