Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 2 limes (, juiced)
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 15 fresh corn tortillas (, cut into six triangles each)
  • oil (, for frying (I used about 2 cups in a small saucepan and it was plenty))
  • 2 Hass avocados
  • 2 teaspoons lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro (, chopped)
  • 1/4 cup red onion (, finely chopped)
  • 1/2 jalapeño (, including seeds and finely chopped)
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt

Instruction

  • Wet your clean fingers in lime juice and wipe across the tortillas. Let them sit out for five to ten minutes while you make the guacamole.
  • Cut the chips into six even triangles.
  • Heat your oil to 375 degrees.
  • If you don't have a thermometer, drop one chip in the oil and if it comes to the surface bubbling the temperature is good.
  • Cook for 20-30 seconds, you aren't looking for them to brown.
  • Remove with slotted spoon.
  • Sprinkle salt over them immediately.
  • To make the guacamole choose two nice ripe avocados that are dark green on the outside.
  • Cut avocados, remove pit and scoop out and into a bowl.
  • Add two teaspoons of lime juice and salt and mash together until smooth.
  • Add in the cilantro, red onion and jalapeno.
  • Mix well and serve with chips.
