Baked Tortilla Chips
Tasty tortilla chips baked at home with corn tortillas are much better than store-bought chips. With an amazing lime and cumin flavor, these crispy, golden chips taste great with your favorite salsa, guacamole, or hummus.
Ingredients
- 1 12 ounce package corn tortillas
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Stack tortillas in layers of 5 or 6. Cut through each stack to make 8 wedges. Arrange wedges in a single layer on rimmed baking sheets.
- Combine lime juice and oil in a spray bottle or mister; shake until well mixed. Spray the tops of the tortilla wedges until slightly moist.
- Combine cumin, chili powder, and salt in a small bowl; sprinkle mixture over the chips.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 7 minutes. Remove from the oven. Flip chips, then mist and season again.
- Return to the oven, rotating the pans and switching racks. Bake, checking often to ensure they don't burn, until chips are lightly browned and crisp, 5 to 8 more minutes.
- Remove from the oven and cool slightly before serving. Chips will crisp up more as they cool.
- Enjoy with a side of salsa!
Notes
Even stale or dried-out corn tortillas will give good results in this recipe.
