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

Procedure

  1. Combine hot sauce, salt, and lime juice in a large dish. Add tortillas and soak for 2 hours.
  2. Remove to a cooling rack and let dry for 2 hours.
  3. 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.
