Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pita bread
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Cut each piece of pita bread into 8 triangular wedges. If using thick pita bread, carefully separate the layers to create thinner chips.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Place the pita wedges in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil mixture over them, ensuring even coverage. Toss gently until all the pita pieces are coated.
Spread the seasoned pita wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overlapping to ensure they bake evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through for even crisping. Keep a close eye to prevent burning, as they can crisp up quickly after 10 minutes.
Remove the pita chips from the oven once they are golden brown and firm to the touch. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to fully crisp up.
Serve the chips warm or at room temperature with your favorite dip, such as hummus, tzatziki, or guacamole. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week.
