Ingredients
- 12 corn tortillas 5 to 6-inch, yellow or white
- 1 Tbsp. olive oil
- ½ tsp. salt plus more to taste
- 1 tsp. lime juice optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Whisk together oil, lime juice and salt in a small bowl. Brush oil mixture over both sides of each tortilla using a pastry brush. Cut each corn tortilla into 4 or 6 triangles using a knife or pizza cutter.
- Place tortilla triangles in a single layer on two large baking sheets. It's OK if some of them overlap slightly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes if using a light baking sheet or 8-11 minutes if using a darker colored baking sheet. You’ll know the tortilla chips are done baking when they are crisp and golden.

Notes
- Storage: Once your freshly baked tortilla chips have completely cooled, place them in a large 1-gallon sized ziplock bag. They will last for up to 3-4 days at room temperature.
- Reheating: If the chips start to get a bit soft after storing, simply pop them into a 375 degree oven for a few minutes to crisp them back up.
