In a large heavy skillit heat 3/4-inch of the oil to 375F and in it fry the tortilla strips in batches, stirring, for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until they are golden and crisp, transferring them with a slotted spatula as they are fried to paper towels to drain. Arrange the tortilla strips in a baking pan and sprinkle the spice mixture over them, tossing the strips to coat them evenly. Keep the tortilla strips warm in the 250F oven until ready to serve.
