Step 1
Slice avocado in half lengthwise. Remove pit, scoop into a small bowl.
Step 2
Mash avocado with a fork. Squeeze 1/4 lime over top. Season with salt.

Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, ~2 minutes.
Step 4
Fry one tortilla 30 seconds per side until it is golden and crispy. Transfer to paper towels.
