Homemade Tortilla Chips Recipe

Corn Tortilla Chips

Slice your tortillas up into little triangles, fry them up in some hot oil, sprinkle with salt and enjoy! That’s all it takes to make tortilla chips at home. These are the most crunchy chips, perfect for scooping up some salsa or guacamole! Make a bowl-full for Taco Night, game day, and every day in between. They are so great for snacking, and they go with every dip you can imagine. There are two big rules to follow when making these: Move quickly (the chips cook fast) and don’t burn yourself with the hot oil! If you can master those two easy rules, you’ll have party-ready fried tortilla chips in no time.
