Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400˚F. In a measuring cup, combine extra virgin olive oil and seasonings, stir to combine.
Step 2
Cut pita bread into triangles. For an 8-inch pita bread, you can use a pizza cutter to slice it into 8-10 wedges or triangles.
Step 3
Combine pita bread in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil mixture and toss with your hands until evenly coated.
Step 4
Arrange pita chips in a single layer. I fit the whole batch on a large half sheet, but you can also use 2 smaller baking sheets. Bake at 400˚F in a single layer for 8-12 minutes (depending on thickness of pita bread) flipping halfway. Bake until crisp, golden and firm. If you have 2 baking sheets, rotate them halfway through baking.

Chef's notes
Pocket pita has 2 thinner layers in it so it bakes into chips faster (7-9 minutes), while thicker soft pita bread takes longer to dry and crisp up (10-12 minutes).
