Ingredients for Fried Pita Chips
Method
Directions for Making Fried Pita Chips
- 1
Prepare the Pita Bread
Cut each pita bread into eighths to create triangular chips. You can stack the pita breads and cut them together to save time.
- 2
Heat the Oil
In a large, deep skillet or frying pan, pour in the olive oil and heat it over medium-high heat until it shimmers, about 5 minutes.
- 3
Season the Oil
While the oil is heating, in a small bowl, combine salt, garlic powder, paprika, and dried oregano. Mix well.
- 4
Fry the Pita Chips
Once the oil is hot, carefully add the pita wedges in a single layer. Fry them for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- 5
Remove and Drain
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried pita chips from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- 6
Season the Chips
While the chips are still warm, sprinkle the seasoning mixture over them, tossing gently to coat evenly.
- 7
Serve
Let the chips cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them with your favorite dip or as a snack on their own.
