Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces pita bread
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut each pita bread into 8 wedges to create chip-sized triangles. You can slice through the center of each pita to separate the layers for thinner chips if desired.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the pita wedges in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the seasoned olive oil mixture over the pita pieces and toss gently to ensure each piece is evenly coated.
Arrange the pita wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure none of the pieces overlap for even baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until the edges turn golden and crispy. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the pita chips cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes to crisp further.
Serve immediately with your favorite dip or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
