Chipotle Lime Tortilla Chips
Tortilla chips cost way more than tortillas, but when they get home, they end up looking like Earth after Mars hits it.
Ingredients
- 10 corn tortillas, each cut into 10 wedges
- ½ cup freshly-squeezed lime juice
- 2 tbsp salt
- ¼ cup chipotle-based hot sauce
- Oil for deep-frying
Steps
- Combine hot sauce, salt, and lime juice in a large dish. Add tortillas and soak for 2 hours.
- Remove to a cooling rack and let dry for 2 hours.
- Deep fry at 375°F until pieces float and are lightly browned around edges. Drain on a cooling rack set above a baking pan. Serve.
