Ingredients

Scale

For the Chips

  • 4 tortillas (Corn or Flour tortillas) – Choose corn for a traditional crunch or flour for a softer bite.
  • 1 cup pizza sauce or marinara sauce – Opt for thicker sauces to keep chips crispy.

For the Toppings

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese – Feel free to mix in cheddar, provolone, or Parmesan.
  • 1 cup assorted toppings – Customize with favorites like pepperoni, bell peppers, or olives.

For Seasoning

  • 1 teaspoon Italian herbs – Sprinkle on basil or oregano.
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder – Adds a warm, aromatic layer.
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes – For a spicy kick.

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for baking the chips.
  2. Cut the tortillas: Slice each tortilla into triangles or squares to ensure uniform chip shapes and even baking.
  3. Arrange on baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the tortilla pieces in a single layer to prevent sticking and ensure crispiness.
  4. Apply sauce: Spread a thin layer of pizza or marinara sauce on each tortilla chip to add flavor without making them soggy.
  5. Add cheese and toppings: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over each chip, then add your selected toppings such as pepperoni or vegetables.
  6. Season the chips: Drizzle Italian herbs, garlic powder, and crushed red pepper flakes for additional flavor and aroma.
  7. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes until the cheese bubbles and the chip edges turn golden brown.
  8. Cool and serve: Remove from oven and let the pizza chips cool for a few minutes to enhance their crisp texture before serving.

Notes

  • Using corn tortillas will give a crisper chip compared to flour tortillas.
  • Make sure to apply a thin layer of sauce to avoid sogginess.
  • Feel free to experiment with different cheese blends or toppings according to your preference.
  • Let chips cool after baking to maintain crunchiness.
  • These chips are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
