Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups corn tortillas, cut into wedges
  • 1 packet True Lime seasoning (or similar lime seasoning)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (optional, for extra crispness)
  • pinch salt (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes.
  2. (Optional) In a bowl, lightly toss the tortilla wedges with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Arrange tortilla wedges in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
  3. Air fry for 2-4 minutes, shaking the basket every 30 seconds after the first minute, until golden brown and crispy.
  4. Transfer the hot chips to a serving bowl. While still hot, sprinkle evenly with True Lime seasoning and any other optional seasonings like chili powder or garlic powder. Serve immediately.

Notes

- Don't overcrowd the basket: Cook the tortilla wedges in batches if necessary to ensure they crisp up evenly. Overlapping chips will steam instead of fry.
- Even seasoning: For best results, toss the hot chips with seasoning immediately after removing them from the air fryer. This helps the flavors adhere better.
- Storage and reheating: Store leftover chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To re-crisp, air fry for 1-2 minutes at 350°F (175°C).
