Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Pour in blended mixture, taking care not to splatter, and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer until thickened, about 6 to 8 minutes.

Cut corn tortillas into quarters. In a large skillet heat remaining oil and fry corn tortilla pieces until crunchy. Lower heat to low. Add sauce and mix only long enough to coat all the tortillas.
