Crispy baked pita chips infused with spicy jalapeño and sharp cheddar cheese. Perfect for dipping or snacking.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large pita breads
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 jalapeño, finely diced (seeds removed for less heat)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cut each pita bread in half, then cut each half into 4 wedges, creating 8 wedges per pita.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, garlic powder, and salt.
  4. Place the pita wedges in a medium bowl. Drizzle the olive oil mixture over the pita wedges and toss gently to coat evenly.
  5. Spread the coated pita wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and starting to crisp.
  7. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and diced jalapeño evenly over the pita chips.
  8. Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for another 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Let the chips cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes to crisp up further before serving.

Notes

  • For a spicier chip, leave some of the jalapeño seeds in.
  • You can substitute Monterey Jack or a Mexican blend cheese for the cheddar.
  • Serve immediately with your favorite salsa, guacamole, or dip.
