Tortilla Crisps w/ Guac

Picture
6- to 8-inch flour tortillas
olive or vegetable oil (savory chips) or
melted butter (sweet chips)
spices and seasonings , to taste

Note:  With mild seasonings, season both sides of the chip.  With intense seasoning flavors, season only one side of the chip.


Savory Chip Seasoning Ideas
  • Sea Salt
  • Italian Herbs and grated Parmigiano Reggiano (thyme, oregano, rosemary, basil)
  • Za'atar Seasoning (sumac, seasame seeds, cumin, thyme, oregano, marjoram)
  • Hungarian Paprika, Sea Salt, and Garlic Powder
  • Garlic Powder, grated Parmiggiano Reggiano, and Sea Salt

Sweet Chip Ideas
  • Cinnamon Sugar (1/4 cup granulated sugar mixed with 1-1/2 to 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon, to taste.
Instructions
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Brush each side of a tortilla with about 1/2 teaspoon oil or melted butter.
  • Sprinkle one or both sides of tortilla with seasoning of choice.
  • Using a sharp knife or pizza wheel, cut tortilla in half and then crosswise into 1-inch wide strips, or simply cut into 8-wedges, and place in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Repeat with remaining tortillas.
  • Bake until light golden brown and crisp 5-12 minutes (see note below), rotating pans halfway through if baking more than one at a time.
  • Cool to room temperature. Baked chips keep well, stored in an airtight tin, for up to a week.
  • You'll find that the flavor and texture are actually best after a day or two.
