- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil

- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Stir together paprika, achiote, cayenne, salt, lime juice, and oil.
- Put 1 tortilla on each of 2 baking sheets and brush with oil mixture. Cut each tortilla into long thin triangles with a sharp knife.
