Pita Chips


A few months ago my friend, Bread Lady, taught me how to make tabouli. She also shared her secret to making the best pita chips. I love the pita bread at Phoenicia, an awesome Middle Eastern deli and bakery in Austin.

What you need:
  • pita pocket bread, white or wheat
  • olive oil
  • salt, to taste
What you do:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut pita bread into wedges.









Separate the two layers of pita.








Place separated pita wedges, inside of the pita is facing up, on a baking sheet.

Drizzle with a little olive oil and brush each pita wedge to distribute the oil.

Sprinkle pita chips with salt.

Bake until lightly toasted, about 5 minutes. Watch the pita chips closely!
Ahhh... golden brown pita chips.
Enjoy with your favorite hummus, baba ghanoush, guacamole, salsa, dip or whatever makes your pita happy.
Thanks again Bread Lady!
