Servings: 48 chips
Calories: 15kcal
Ingredients
- 6 pita breads
- 1/4 cup + 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
Instructions
Prepare
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, then set aside.
- Slice each pita bread in half, then slice each half-moon shape into 4 triangle-shaped pieces (so you’ll have 8 triangles per pita bread). Repeat with remaining pita bread.
Season pita bread
- In a small bowl, combine all spices (oregano, garlic powder, salt, onion powder, black pepper, and smoked paprika). This makes the spices coat the pita chips more evenly.
- Add pita triangles to a large mixing bowl, then add olive oil and stir well to get each triangle coated in the oil.
- Sprinkle in about half of the spices, then give everything a big stir. I find using my hands works best for this, to really rub the spices into the pita.
- Sprinkle in the remaining spices, and stir again to combine everything well.
Bake
- Transfer to prepared baking sheet, and bake for 8 minutes, then turn over using tongs, and bake another 5-8 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Cool and serve
- Let sit on the baking sheet and cool for about 5-10 minutes, then serve with desired dips.
Notes
- The exact baking time will vary, depending on how thick your pita breads are.
- Regular paprika can be used in place of smoked paprika.
- This recipe makes 48 pita chips.
