Basic Tortilla Chips Recipe

• 2 cups vegetable or canola oil
• 10 (6-inch) corn tortillas, each cut into 8 wedges
• Kosher salt for seasoning

1. Heat oil in a large frying pan or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking or 350 degrees F on a deep-frying thermometer, about 8 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, line two large plates or baking sheets with paper towels and set aside.
3. When oil is hot, add a few handfuls of tortilla wedges, being careful not to overcrowd, and fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.
4. Remove chips with a slotted spoon to the paper-towel-lined plates or baking sheets and sprinkle with salt.
5. (Check the oil temperature in between batches and adjust heat accordingly.)
6. Repeat with remaining tortillas and serve.
