I already LOVE homemade potato chips made in the microwave, so I figured I should be able to do the same thing with tortilla chips. Yep, it works! Very good and much healthier than store-bought fried chips.
3 corn tortillas
cooking spray or oil mister
coarse-ground salt
Cut each tortilla in 6 pieces using a pizza cutter or knife. Lightly spray on both sides with cooking spray. (I like to use my olive oil mister to spray.) Sprinkle with the salt. Spread out on a microwave-safe dinner plate so pieces are not touching. Microwave for 1 minute to 90 seconds (lower wattage microwaves will need the 90 seconds). Flip chips over and microwave on other side 1 minute to 90 seconds. If not yet crispy, flip again and cook another 30 seconds, continuing until crispy. Serve warm.
Cant wait to do this…looks so easy.

This is a great idea I will have to try this soon.
I have made these before when I was wanting chips and didnt have them around. They turn out really well in a toaster oven!
I have heard about this, thank you for sharing how to do this with us.
Oh wow, never knew you could make home made tortilla chips in the microwave. I will have to try this.
This is quick, easy and yummy. Thanks for showing me how to do it.
