Cinnamon and Sugar Tortilla Chips Recipe
Directions
  • Heat oil to 375° F. in an electric skillet.
  • While oil is heating, cut tortillas into in half with a scissors; then cut each half into 1-inch wide strips.
  • Mix the cinnamon and sugar together; set aside.
  • When oil is preheated heated, begin frying the tortillas. Place enough tortilla strips to be frying just a single layer; don't overcrowd them.
  • Fry until lightly browned on one side and then flip them over to lightly brown the other side. Watch carefully because they cook fairly quickly.
  • When they are browned on both sides, remove and drain on paper towels.
  • Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar mixture as soon as removed from the oil; then start frying the next batch.
  • Continue until all the tortilla strips are fried and coated with cinnamon and sugar.
Note: The finished chips cool fairly quickly and then can be stacked in a bowl or container to make room for more chips as they get done.
