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.

FRUIT SALSA WITH CINNAMON TORTILLA CHIPS
The fun of this recipe is that it can be tailored to your tastes. I'm a 'throw it in and see how it turns out' kind of cook, so please adjust the recipe to fit your own tastes. This recipe is best used immediately, as fresh fruit doesn't keep well in the refrigerator. If you prefer baked cinnamon chips, arrange the tortilla triangles in a single layer on a lightly greased baking sheet. Spray with cooking spray, sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon, and bake 5 to 10 minutes in an oven preheated to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Watch them closely so they don't burn!

SALSA ROJA
Most of the flavor in my homemade salsa roja recipe comes from dried mild chiles, like ancho, guajillo, and pasilla. Use this mild salsa on tacos or chips.

Steps:
- Combine 1 large white onion, halved, 4 medium plum tomatoes (about 12 oz.), halved, 1-2 serrano chiles, 4 garlic cloves, and 3 oz. dried ancho, guajillo, and/or pasilla chiles, stems and seeds removed, in a medium saucepan, using fresh vegetables to weigh down dried chiles. Pour in water just to cover. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat. Cover and let sit until dried chiles are rehydrated and fresh vegetables are softened, 20-25 minutes.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer vegetables to a blender; reserve soaking liquid. Add ½ bunch cilantro, tough stems trimmed, coarsely chopped, juice of 1 lime, 1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt, ½ tsp. ground cumin, ¼ tsp. ground cinnamon, and 1 cup reserved soaking liquid. Blend, starting on low speed and gradually increasing to high, until smooth, about 2 minutes. Taste salsa and add more salt if needed.
Tips:
- Choose ripe limes: Using ripe limes will give your chips and salsa a brighter, more flavorful taste.
- Use fresh cilantro: Fresh cilantro adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the salsa. If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can substitute 1/2 teaspoon of dried cilantro.
- Roast your tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes brings out their natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast the tomatoes in the oven or on the grill.
- Use a variety of peppers: Using a variety of peppers will give your salsa a more complex flavor. You can use any type of pepper you like, but some good options include jalapeños, serranos, and poblanos.
- Season to taste: Be sure to taste your salsa before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more lime juice, salt, or pepper.
Conclusion:
These lime tortilla chips and roasted salsa are a delicious and easy snack or appetizer. The chips are crispy and flavorful, and the salsa is fresh and tangy. This recipe is perfect for any occasion, and it's sure to be a hit with your friends and family.
