Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
Cut the gluten-free pita bread into small bite-sized pieces. Place them on a baking sheet.
Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the pita pieces, and sprinkle 1 teaspoon of ground sumac on top. Toss to combine.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes or until the pita bread is golden brown and crispy. Remove from oven and let cool.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to form the dressing.
In a large salad bowl, combine the chopped Romaine lettuce, diced cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, sliced radishes, chopped parsley, and chopped mint.
Add the cooled pita bread pieces and pour the dressing over the salad.
Sprinkle the remaining 1 teaspoon of sumac over the salad.
Toss everything together gently to ensure the vegetables and pita are evenly coated with the dressing.
Serve immediately as a refreshing and satisfying gluten-free fatoush salad.
