Ingredients
  

2 large whole wheat pita breads

1 cup crumbled feta cheese

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon dried oregano

½ teaspoon smoked paprika

¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Sea salt, to taste

Fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). To prepare for baking, line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and promote even crisping.

    Prepare the Pita: Take each pita bread and, using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, slice them into sixths, creating triangle shapes. This will result in bite-sized pieces perfect for snacking!

      Mix the Seasoning: In a small mixing bowl, combine the extra virgin olive oil, garlic powder, dried oregano, smoked paprika, and freshly ground black pepper. Stir the mixture well until it forms a smooth, thin paste.

        Coat the Pita: Place the pita triangles in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil mixture over the pita pieces. Using your hands or a spatula, toss them gently to ensure that each piece is fully coated with the flavorful seasoning.

          Add Feta: Once the pita is well-coated, sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the top. Continue to toss carefully until the feta is evenly distributed among the pita triangles, adding a creamy tang to every bite.

            Bake: Arrange the coated pita chips in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they aren’t overlapping. Bake them in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Remember to flip them halfway through baking for an even crisp.

              Cool and Serve: After 12-15 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the chips to cool slightly. Sprinkle with sea salt to taste, and finish with a garnish of finely chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor.

                Enjoy: Serve these delightful crispy feta pita chips warm or at room temperature. They are perfect for dipping in your favorite sauces or enjoying as a standalone snack!
