Microwave 'Baked' Tortilla Chip Recipe
www.texmextogo.com
Ingredients:
12 corn tortillas
Vegetable oil for brushing or misting
Salt, preferably kosher or sea salt
Directions:
Lay the tortillas out on a cutting board, lightly spray, brush or mist both sides with oil, then cut each tortilla into 6 wedges. Lay the wedges out in a single layer on the bottom of the microwave oven. Microwave on high for 1 1/2 minutes. Turn the tortilla wedges over and microwave for another 1 1/2 minutes. Continue turning and microwaving at 1 1/2-minute intervals, moving the wedges around if some seem to be browning more than others, until they are crisp - remember, as they cool, they'll crisp even more. Total microwaving time is likely to be 5-7 minutes. Immediately toss the chips with salt and serve. Makes 72 chips.
Preparation time: 10 minutes.
Cooking time: about 30 minutes (about 5-7 minutes per batch).
