Servings

  • flaky sea salt to taste, or fine salt

Instructions

To Fry

  1. Cut the tortillas in half, then cut them into ½-inch strips along the short end.
  2. Heat ½-inch of vegetable oil to 350°F in a large skillet or saute pan over medium heat.
  3. Working in batches, fry a handful of the tortilla strips for about 45-90 seconds or until lightly browned. If the strips are browning too quickly, turn down the heat.
  4. Transfer the strips to a baking sheet lined with paper towels using a slotted spoon. Immediately season with flaky sea salt and allow to cool before serving.

To Bake

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray each side of the tortillas with olive oil. Cut them in half and then into ½-inch strips along the short end.
  2. Place the strips on a foil-lined baking sheet in a single layer. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and bake for 5-10 minutes or until lightly browned.

Notes

  • If the tortilla strips are browning too quickly during tfrying turn down the heat.
