Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Add the vegetable oil, lime juice, chili powder, smoked paprika and cayenne pepper to a small bowl and whisk to combine.
- Arrange the tortillas on a clean work surface. Using a pastry brush or a silicone brush, lightly brush the tortillas with the lime spice mixture. Be sure to just lightly coat the tortillas in the mixture; do not oversaturate them. Flip over the tortillas and lightly coat the other side as well.
- Stack the tortillas and cut them in half, then cut each half into 3 chip-size wedges (6 wedges per tortilla). Transfer the wedges to 2 rimmed baking sheets and arrange them in an even layer, making sure not to overlap any. Sprinkle the salt evenly over the wedges on both baking sheets.
- Bake until the chips are golden and crispy, about 15 minutes. Transfer the chips to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.

CHIHUAHUA-TOMATO SOUP WITH CRISPY LIME-CHILI TORTILLAS
I created this soup on a chilly spring evening. It's a light but satisfying vegetarian soup flavored with cumin, oregano, pasilla chile and lime, served with Chihuahua cheese (or another Mexican queso fresco - fresh white cheese). Plus, it's topped with adictive little crispy-fried lime-chili tortilla strips!

Steps:
- Saute onion in olive oil until slightly browned.
- Add garlic, cumin and oregano; cook for 10 more minutes, stirring frequently.
- Add tomatoes, vegetable broth and pasilla chile.
- Bring to a boil, then lower heat slightly and add masa harina (if using; I like the flavor and it adds a little more"body" to the soup), stirring well until it's dissolved.
- Simmer gently 30 minutes.
- In the meantime, heat vegetable oil in a skillet.
- Carefully add tortilla strips; sprinkle with salt and chili powder and fry until lightly crispy (you may need to turn on your range fan for this event!).
- Sprinkle with the juice of 1/2 lime and set aside.
- And here's the important part- try not to eat all the tortilla strips before the soup is done!
- LOL!
- Squeeze the juice of 1 lime into the soup after it's simmered for 30 minutes; heat 10 minutes more.
- To serve, place cheese in soup bowls; ladle soup over and top with crispy tortilla strips.

LIME SOUP WITH TORTILLA STRIPS AND CHICKEN
A very tasty, light, refreshing soup. I sometimes make this ahead and keep it warm in the crockpot. I also don't use nearly as much oil as the recipe calls for. From Bon Appetit.
