Taco Chips Recipes

KETO CHEDDAR TACO CRISPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat.
• Toss together the Cheddar, Parmesan, chili powder, cumin and cayenne in a small bowl.
• Spoon heaping tablespoonfuls of the cheese mixture about 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet. Spread out each pile and lightly pat down (it's ok if there are gaps). Bake until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly, about 5 minutes.
• Let the crisps cool for a few seconds on the baking sheet and then use a metal spatula to lift and drape them over a rolling pin to cool completely. (You can also let them cool on the baking sheet for flat crisps.)
• Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

BAKED TORTILLA CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Cut each tortilla into 8 chip sized wedges and arrange the wedges in a single layer on a cookie sheet.
• In a mister, combine the oil and lime juice. Mix well and spray each tortilla wedge until slightly moist.
• Combine the cumin, chili powder and salt in a small bowl and sprinkle on the chips.
• Bake for about 7 minutes. Rotate the pan and bake for another 8 minutes or until the chips are crisp, but not too brown. Serve with salsas, garnishes or guacamole.

HOW TO MAKE HOMEMADE TORTILLA CHIPS

Steps:

• Stack the tortillas and cut into 6 even wedges.
• Heat 1½ -inches of oil in a 6- to 8-quart dutch oven until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350˚. Working in 3 to 4 batches, add the tortillas, stirring occasionally to keep the tortillas in the oil. Cook for about 1 minute until lightly golden and crunchy.
• Remove with a spider or slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined sheet tray. Sprinkle immediately with kosher salt. (The chips will continue to turn golden as they cool.)

TACO CHIPS

Steps:

• Brush butter onto the flour tortillas.
• Sprinkle with desired amount of taco seasoning (will have extras).
• Cut into triangles (whatever size pleases you).
• Place on cookie sheets and bake at 350 degree F for 8 minute.
• or until slightly golden brown and crunchy.
• Serve with salsa or quick mexican layered dip (can be found on recipezaar).

CRUNCHY CORN CHIP TACOS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat until meat is crumbly and no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Drain excess grease; stir in water and taco seasoning mix. Reduce heat to low and simmer the meat mixture until thickened, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Bake taco shells on a baking sheet in the preheated oven until crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Let cool for about 5 minutes and break apart into bite-size pieces.
• Transfer seasoned ground beef to a large serving bowl and mix in the nacho cheese corn chips, taco shell pieces, Mexican cheese blend, and hot pepper sauce.
