Few months back, we taught you how to make your own homemade guacamole dip. Today, we’re going to show you how to make your very own homemade chips to go along with your guacamole dip.
When you talk about guacamole, what do you think about? Eating guacamole with tortilla chips has to be the most iconic and typical way to eat the dip. And unsurprisingly, the most boring way to eat it, too.
Here, we have prepared a few different types of homemade chips you can bake to pair with your homemade guacamole — tortilla chips included!
Homemade Tortilla Chips
Ingredients:
- 15 yellow corn tortillas
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, more for greasing baking sheet
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- salt
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 190 deg Celcius and spray cooking spray on two large sheets of baking paper.
- Mix the oil and lime juice in a bowl. Take one tortilla and cover its entire surface with the oil. Stack another tortilla on top, and brush the oil on its surface. Continue until you have 7-8 tortillas in a stack.
- Cut the stack in half and make small tortilla triangles. Repeat with all tortillas.
- Line your tortilla chips on the baking sheets. Note that the chips will shrink once baked. So, lining them up right next to each other is okay. Sprinkle salt over the tortilla chips.
- Bake until the chips turn golden, approximately 8-12 minutes.
- Leave the chips to cool before serving, or store them in an airtight container. Enjoy!
