Garlic Pita Chips

By Diana Rattray, About.com

Easy chips made with pita breads and garlic.

Ingredients:

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup good quality olive oil
  • 8 medium cloves garlic, peeled and halved
  • 6 pita breads
  • dried basil or Italian seasoning
  • Parmesan Cheese, optional

Preparation:

Melt butter in small saucepan. Add olive oil and garlic to melted butter and sauté over low heat for 10 minutes. Take care not to brown the butter or garlic. Discard garlic pieces. Split pita breads to make two rounds. Cut each round in half. With rough inner side up, lay pita slices on a baking sheet. Brush entire surface with garlic butter mixture. If desired, sprinkle with a little dried basil or Italian seasoning. Bake in a preheated 350° oven for 10 minutes. If desired, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Place about 4 inches from the broiler and broil for about 1 minute, until nicely browned. Remove from oven and place on paper towels to drain.
Break into smaller chip-size pieces. Serve with your favorite dip.
