Pour Marsala Extra Virgin Olive Oil (or your favorite varietal) into a pan until the olive oil is 1/2 inch deep. To save olive oil, use a small pan, to go fast, use a large pan :)
Set pan on medium heat.
Cut flour tortillas into quarters.
Test a corner of a flour tortilla in the oil. It should bubble at the edges if it's hot enough.
Drop tortillas in pan. Flip once browned on one side. Remove once browned on both sides. Place on a paper towel to cool. Sprinkle a little salt on each chip.
