Pita Chips – Making Them Easy

Barbecue’s big flavors often call for a collection of robust sides. Often times a backyard cookout is accompanied by some cheap potato chips. Here’s a way to dress it up and offer a slightly healthier (baked) alternative. Sure you can buy pita chips in the store, but they tend to be small overpriced bags and not enough for small gathering.

Go ahead and try to make these chips at home they’re super easy and we nailed it on the first try.


Garlic Pita Chips

1-2 packages pita bread

Olive oil

Seasoned salt

Garlic powder

Olive oil spray

  • Cut pita bread in half, then cut each half into four triangles and separate each triangle.

  • Place chips on baking sheets lined with parchment paper and brush heavily with olive oil.

  • Sprinkle salt and garlic powder over all. (One side only for best result.)

  • Bake at 350 degrees for 8 minutes.

  • Flip chips and spray with olive oil spray.

  • Bake 6-8 more minutes until golden brown. (For convection, use 325 degrees and only 6 minutes on the second round.)

  • Drain on a paper towel and serve with your favorite dip!
