Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cut the pita bread into small bite-sized pieces. Toss them with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and a pinch of salt.
Spread the pita pieces on a baking sheet and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Set aside to cool.
Wash and chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Place it in a large salad bowl.
Slice the cucumber into thin half-moons, dice the tomatoes, slice the radishes into thin rounds, and finely slice the green onions. Add them to the salad bowl.
Chop the parsley and mint leaves finely and mix them with the other vegetables in the bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon of olive oil, sumac, pomegranate molasses, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all the vegetables with the zesty flavors.
Add the crispy pita chips on top just before serving to keep them crunchy.
Serve immediately and enjoy this refreshing Lebanese Fattoush Salad!
