Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces pita bread
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Using a sharp knife or kitchen scissors, cut each pita bread into 8 triangles. To do this, first cut each pita bread in half, then cut each half into quarters.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and dried parsley (if using).
Place the pita triangles in a large mixing bowl, and drizzle the garlic oil mixture over them.
Gently toss the pita triangles with your hands or a spatula to ensure each piece is evenly coated in the mixture.
Spread the pita triangles out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure the pieces do not overlap to ensure even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the pita chips are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them towards the end to avoid burning.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the pita chips cool on the sheet for about 5 minutes. They will crisp up further as they cool.
Serve immediately with your favorite dips, such as hummus or tzatziki, or enjoy on their own as a delicious snack!
