Making homemade tortilla chips in the air fryer is so easy! Fresh, tasty, and done in just a few minutes, you'll never go back to pre-made chips!
Using the air fryer to make homemade tortilla chips is so easy! It takes less than 10 minutes, and they come out delicious and crunchy! Pair them with a delicious salsa, like Red Gold's Salsa, and it's the perfect snack or party food! For today's post I am partnering with Red Gold Tomatoes, but all opinions are my own.
It only takes a few ingredients to make these Air Fryer tortilla chips; corn tortillas and a bit of oil...salt is optional but recommended. Serve these as a delicious snack, or alongside this amazing Instant Pot Salsa Rice or Enchilada Skillet Rice!
How to make Air Fryer Tortilla Chips:
**scroll down for full ingredients list and printable directions**
- Get all the ingredients together; corn tortillas, spray oil, and salt if desired. You could also mix up the flavors by seasoning the chips with chili powder, paprika, or cumin for a touch of spice!
- Cut the corn tortillas in half, then in half again, making 4 chips per tortilla.
- Add the tortillas to the air fryer basket, then lightly spray the tops with oil spray (a little goes a long way). Lightly sprinkle salt over the tortillas if desired.
- Close the air fryer and set to 350 degrees F and 10 minutes.
- After 4 minutes, open the air fryer and shake lightly. Close and continue cooking. After 4 more minutes, open and shake lightly. At this point see if you need the remaining 2 minutes (different air fryer models will cook differently). Continue cooking if needed.
- Remove from air fryer and serve with Red Gold Salsa!
I love using Red Gold Salsa with pretty much everything, but pairing it with these Air Fryer Tortilla Chips is the perfect match! I love that the salsa comes in different varieties like mild, medium and hot, as well as black bean and corn flavors! It's made with 3 different chilis and no green pepper filler, along with Red Gold's premium tomatoes! It is really the perfect salsa!
How to store Tortilla Chips:
- Store the chips in a sealed bag or sealed container. Will stay fresh for 3-4 days. Can also toss them back in the air fryer for 1-2 minutes to heat back up before serving.
