Ingredients
- 8 corn tortillas
- Cooking spray (as needed)
- Salt (to taste)
- Black pepper (optional, to taste)
- Additional seasonings (optional, such as chili powder, paprika, or cumin)
Instructions
- Cut tortillas into chips: Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut each corn tortilla into six equal wedges, forming the shape of tortilla chips.
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to fully preheat for even baking.
- Arrange chips on baking sheet: Place the tortilla wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
- Spray and season: Lightly spray the tortilla wedges with cooking spray to help them crisp up and adhere the seasoning. Sprinkle with salt and pepper or other desired seasonings evenly over the chips.
- Bake the chips: Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until the chips turn crispy and golden brown, watching closely to prevent burning.
- Cool and serve: Remove the chips from the oven and allow them to cool slightly so they harden further. Serve immediately with your favorite dips.
Notes
- For extra flavor, toss the chips with chili powder, garlic powder, or paprika before baking.
- Keep an eye on the chips during baking as cooking time can vary slightly based on oven.
- Store leftover chips in an airtight container to maintain crispiness.
- You can use whole wheat or flour tortillas if preferred, but corn tortillas yield the best authentic flavor.
