Pita chips

This is an excellent snack with various kinda dips! Its healthy too, to snack on after a tiring day at work!! I have made these a few times and they always turn out great! It lasts for about 2 weeks. It goes great with the following dips: Muhammara, Hummus, Tzaztki, recipes coming next ;) Its gonna be a mediterrnean string of recipes!


Ingredients:


4 whole wheat pita bread(Trader Joes)
1/4 cup olive oil
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon of dried oregano

Method:

Preheat the oven at 350 degrees.

Cut the pita bread into neat triangles, by first slicing it into half to make semi circles, and then cutting each semi circle in quarter circles. There should be 16 quarter circles, which you will then cut further into half, to make 32 pieces in total.

Spread the pieces onto a baking sheet, and coat them completely with the olive oil. Sprinkle the salt, pepper and oregano over the pita triangles uniformly.

Bake them in the oven, for roughly about 15-20 min, until they are slightly brown. They will still be a little soft. Remove it from the oven and let them cool. Once cooled, they will be crisp and ready to eat with the dips! Enjoy!
