Ingredients

  • 5 small corn tortillas
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 lime juiced
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  • Cut the tortillas into 6 triangles each.

  • Remove from the oil and transfer to a paper towel.
  • Sprinkle with a few drops of the lime juice as they cool and sprinkle with sea salt and garlic powder.
  • Serve immediately.

These are best eaten right away and not saving any. But they're so easy you'll be glad to make them every time you want some!
