Ingredients

  • 4 slices pita bread white or whole wheat (I use Papa Pita brand)
  • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese finely grated
  • ½ teaspoon granulated garlic or garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon dried parsley
  • ½ teaspoon finely ground sea salt
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil or as needed

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a small bowl, combine the Parmesan, granulated garlic (or garlic powder), parsley, and salt. Set aside.
  • Lightly brush both sides of pita rounds with olive oil. Sprinkle the top side of each piece with the Parmesan garlic seasoning mixture. Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut each round into 8 wedges. Place the wedges on an ungreased, rimmed baking sheet and bake for 6 to 8 minutes, until golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes. The Pita Chips will continue to crisp up after being removed from the oven. Serve while still slightly warm.
  • When completely cooled, pita chips can be stored in an airtight container or zippered plastic storage bag.
