Easy Pita Chips
If you love pita chips, you will find this simple recipe just too easy! You can make them with only 3 ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry or refrigerator.
Ingredients:
8-10 large flour tortillas
4 cups oil (Grape, Vegetable, your choice)
1 Tablespoon salt
Instructions:
Bring heat up to a temperature of around 325-340 in a large pot (you need the extra room of the larger pot)
Cut tortillas into 4-6 pieces, depending on the size of chip you prefer
Using tongs, gently drop 4 tortillas into the hot oil and cook until they turn golden brown, turning a couple of times
Remove from oil and drain on paper towels for a few minutes BEFORE eating them
Sprinkle on salt or cinnamon with sugar while still hot and damp with oil
My crew likes them really crispy – almost to the burned stage but you can cook them to your preference. Watch them as they go from dough to done in a heartbeat!
