i love baba foods. they're a local company here in our city that produces healthy and tasty mediterranean condiments that come in so many wonderful flavor combinations. they also offer different variety of pita chips that goes awesomely with their dips and sauces. my favorite of the variety would probably be the lemon pepper pita chips! every time i go to the farmer's market, i always try to nab a box of those zingy suckers.
alas, since i've been home bound these last few weeks, i've been a little depraved and haven't been able to make my way there. i have been hankering for some of my favorite dippers! and of course, because it's me, the itch to get some hit when my local mediterranean stores were already closed. man, i made the hummus already...so what's a girl to do?! well, make my own of course! and that's exactly what i did. :D
Homemade Lemon Pepper Pita Chips (makes about 2 cups of chips)
3 pita rounds, cut into wedges or strips 1/8 cup or so extra virgin olive oil 2 tsp lemon pepper seasoning (or make your own, like i did. :D) 1 tbsp lemon juice (or more, depending on how lemony you want it to be) kosher salt
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine olive oil, seasoning, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Set aside. Prepare the pita breads and arrange on a lined baking sheet in an even layer. Brush the olive oil mixture on the bread and flip them over, doing the same for the other side. If needed, season with the kosher salt. Place in the oven and bake, flipping the chips over once during the cooking, for approximately 15-20 minutes until golden and crispy or until desired doneness. Let cool before serving.
Alternatively, you can also just make the oil mixture and toss the pita chips in it and bake as directed. I'm all for doing things easy too, lol. >:D
