SPICY BAKED TORTILLA CHIPS LOW SODIUM LOW FAT



Spicy baked tortilla chips low sodium low fat image

I can not believe it took me so long to make these. There are a million recipes online, some have a little of this, or a little of that. This is my version and now I will be making these in bulk, so so so delicious and NO GUILT.

Provided by Lynn Socko @lynnsocko

Categories     Other Appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 3

- soft corn tortillas
- non stick spray oil
- spices of your choice

Steps:

  • Cut your corn tortillas into quarters. This can be made with flour tortillas too, but the fat and sodium grams dramatically increase. I can find corn tortillas with 0 sodium and 1 gr. of fat. Spray oil will add a little more fat, but it's miniscule.
  • Lay your cut tortillas on a baking sheet, spray the top of them with spray oil, sprinkle your favorite seasonings. I used Mrs. Dash Southwest Chipotle. this created a little "zing" in the flavor, next time I will be trying the Zesty Lime from Mrs. Dash.
  • Bake 400° for 6-10 min. Cooking time in ovens vary, so check your chips after 6 min. and adjust time accordingly. The edges will start to lift up slightly when crispy.
  • Here are two no salt added salsa you might like to try. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/dip/low-sodium-salsas.html?p=1

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

For the chicken
2 boneless chicken breasts with the skin (about 1 1/2 pounds), halved
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon dried orégano, crumbled
vegetable oil for brushing the chicken
For the tortilla crisps
4 corn tortillas, cut into long thin triangles
vegetable oil for frying the tortillas
2 cups cooked fresh corn kernels (cut from about 4 ears)
1 large red bell pepper, diced
3 scallions, sliced thin
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, or to taste
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh orégano or 1 teaspoon crumbled dried, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, or to taste
1/4 cup olive oil
1 bunch of arugula, washed well and spun dry

Steps:

  • Prepare the chicken:
  • In a bowl let the chicken marinate in the lime juice with the orégano and salt and pepper to taste, covered and chilled, for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour. Drain the chicken, pat it dry, and brush it with the oil. Grill the chicken, seasoned with salt and pepper, on a well-oiled rack set about 6 inches over glowing coals for 6 to 7 minutes on each side, or until it is just cooked through. (Alternately, the chicken can be grilled on top of the stove in a ridged grill pan over moderately high heat for about the same length of time.) Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let it stand for 10 minutes.
  • Make the tortilla crisps while the chicken is grilling:
  • In a heavy skillet heat 1/2 inch oil to 375°F. on a deep-fat thermometer and in it fry the tortilla triangles in batches for 45 seconds to 1 minute, or until they are golden, transferring them with a slotted spatula as they are fried to paper towels to drain and sprinkling them with salt. The tortilla crisps may be made 1 day in advance and kept in an airtight container.
  • In a large bowl combine the corn, the bell pepper, and the scallions, add the lime juice, the orégano, the cumin, the oil, and salt and black pepper to taste, and toss the mixture until it is combined well. Cut the chicken lengthwise into thin slices and add it to the corn mixture with any juices that have accumulated on the cutting board. Divide the arugula and the tortilla crisps among 4 plates and mound the chicken salad in the center of each plate.

HOMEMADE TORTILLA CHIPS



Homemade Tortilla Chips image

Of course, you can buy tortilla chips at the store, but there are many good reasons to make your own. For one, they can support more toppings, since they're likely to be thicker. And you can control the level of salt and browning. This recipe allows you to bake or fry them: Frying results in the crispiest, snappiest crunch, while baking is incredibly easy. If you decide to fry, mind your stovetop heat, adjusting as needed so the chips turn golden in the same time it take them to crisp. The chips are delicious on their own, with salsa or guacamole, or in nachos, chilaquiles or migas. Keep the chips in a sealed container or bag and they will stay beautifully crisp for at least one week.

Categories     snack, crackers and chips, finger foods

Time 1h

Yield 1 to 1 1/2 pounds

Number Of Ingredients 4

30 (5-inch) fresh corn tortillas (about 25 ounces)
Vegetable oil (about 4 cups), as needed for frying or baking
Nonstick cooking spray, for baking
Kosher salt or sea salt

Steps:

  • Collect the tortillas into 2 tall stacks and cut into 6 even wedges. If frying your tortilla chips, proceed to Step 2. If baking your tortilla chips, proceed to Step 3.
  • To fry your tortilla chips, line 2 large baking sheets with paper towels. Set aside. Fill a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet with about 1/2 inch vegetable oil (about 4 cups). Heat over medium until the oil reaches about 350 degrees and is hot but not smoking, 6 to 10 minutes. You can see if it's ready by dipping a tortilla wedge into the hot oil. It should bubble immediately and enthusiastically. Gently add enough tortilla wedges to fill the skillet in a single layer without crowding, and fry for about 1 minute per side, using a spider or a slotted spoon to flip them over, until lightly golden and crisp. (Do not allow them to brown too much or they will taste bitter.) Using the spider or slotted spoon, transfer the chips to the prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle immediately with salt, so it adheres to the glistening chips. Repeat until all chips are cooked, transferring cooled chips to a large bowl and replacing the paper towels as needed. (Let the remaining oil cool to room temperature, then strain and transfer to a bottle to reuse it for future deep frying.)
  • To bake your tortilla chips, position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and heat to 375 degrees. Brush 2 large baking sheets with oil or spray with cooking spray. Working in batches, scatter the tortilla wedges on top in a single layer without crowding too much. (The chips should barely overlap.) Lightly brush or spray the tops with oil or cooking spray. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, remove from the oven, flip the chips and return to the oven, until lightly browned and crisp, another 15 minutes. Remove from the heat. Immediately sprinkle with salt to taste, so the salt will stick to the chips. Repeat with remaining chips.

HOMEMADE CHILI LIME BAKED TORTILLA CHIPS



Homemade Chili Lime Baked Tortilla Chips image

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Time 30m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Ten 5- to 6-inch white corn tortillas
1 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Add the vegetable oil, lime juice, chili powder, smoked paprika and cayenne pepper to a small bowl and whisk to combine.
  • Arrange the tortillas on a clean work surface. Using a pastry brush or a silicone brush, lightly brush the tortillas with the lime spice mixture. Be sure to just lightly coat the tortillas in the mixture; do not oversaturate them. Flip over the tortillas and lightly coat the other side as well.
  • Stack the tortillas and cut them in half, then cut each half into 3 chip-size wedges (6 wedges per tortilla). Transfer the wedges to 2 rimmed baking sheets and arrange them in an even layer, making sure not to overlap any. Sprinkle the salt evenly over the wedges on both baking sheets.
  • Bake until the chips are golden and crispy, about 15 minutes. Transfer the chips to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.
