After making the Tangy Chicken Roll-Ups for a Christmas party, I found myself with entirely too many tortillas kicking around. Knowing we wouldn’t eat them in time, I chopped them into 8 wedges and turned them into tortilla chips, which I ended up taking to the party, as well, along with my Spring Onion Dip. They were a HUGE hit!

While making your own tortilla chips does take time, mainly because they don’t all fit into the oven at once, it’s a very simple process.

Homemade Tortilla Chips

Serves approx. 8 people

12 9″ flour tortillas, cut into 8 wedges
Olive oil
1 Tblsp. paprika
4 Tblsp. salt
1 tsp. all spice
1 Tblsp. celery salt

Preheat oven to 400°.

Mix spices and salt in a bowl. Lay tortilla wedges on baking sheets and brush with oil. Sprinkle with the spice mixture and pop into the oven.

Bake until the tortilla chips are hard, but not browned. They’ll crisp up a bit more after you take them out. This should take between 10-15 min. depending on how thick the tortillas are. Repeat with remaining wedges.
