Pita Chips Preparation

  1. 6

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 7

    Cut Pita Bread

    Cut each pita bread into wedges. You can cut them in half and then each half into 2-3 triangles.

  3. 8

    Season Pita Wedges

    In a bowl, mix the pita wedges with olive oil, salt, and ground paprika until evenly coated.

  4. 9

    Bake Pita Chips

    Spread the pita wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
