COOKING NOTES FOR BAKED TORTILLA CHIPS
WHEN ARE THE CHIPS DONE?
I like my chips on the crispier side, so I left the chips in the oven until the edges were golden brown before pulling them out, about 11 to 12 minutes. Do note that the chips cook faster if you are reusing a baking sheet that’s already been heated. For example, if you have already baked one or two batches of chips in the oven already, the third batch shouldn’t need as much oven time.
DARK VS LIGHT BAKING SHEETS
I noticed that when I used dark colored baking sheets, like the one pictured above, the chips cooked faster. If you’re using dark baking sheets check the chips for doneness at around 8 or 9 minutes.
LIME JUICE
The lime juice in this recipe is optional, but I like the additional flavor. If you want the chips to taste more tangy, add another tablespoon of lime juice to the recipe. You can also squeeze lime juice over the finished chips. However, the chips will lose a bit of their crisp when you use more lime juice.
