Ingredients

• 4 pieces pita bread
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1.5 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons paprika (optional, for extra flavor)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Using a sharp knife or kitchen scissors, carefully cut each pita bread into 8 even triangles (first cut the pita in half, then into quarters, and finally into eighths).

Step 3

Place the pita triangles in a single layer on a large baking sheet. If necessary, use multiple sheets to avoid overlapping.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and paprika (if using).

Step 5

Using a pastry brush, lightly coat one side of each pita triangle with the seasoned olive oil mixture.

Step 6

Flip the triangles over and brush the other side as well to ensure even seasoning.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the chips are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them, as they can go from perfect to overdone quickly.

Step 8

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the pita chips to cool for a few minutes. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.

Step 9

Serve immediately with your favorite dip, or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days for later use.
