1. Stack 3 tortillas on a cutting surface. With a large sharp knife, cut straight down through the stack into quarters. If making strips, cut across the tortillas to make strips the width you want for your dish.
2. In a medium skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until a wedge or strip of tortilla starts to sizzle immediately when dipped into the hot oil. Fry the tortilla pieces in batches about 2 minutes, or until crisp and lightly browned. Remove with a slotted spoon or tongs, and drain on paper towels. While the chips are still hot, sprinkle lightly with salt, if desired.
