A recipe from The BBQ Bible , by Steven Raichlen, for the Middle East. Grilling is a great way to crisp wedges of pita bread for dipping. (It's also a great way to add fresh life to stale pita bread.) For extra color and flavor, sprinkle the chips with white or black sesame seeds before grilling. Ingredients:
3 large pita breads (or 4 small) |
3 tablespoons olive oil, extra-virgin |
1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat the grill to high.
2. Cut larger pitas into 8 wedges, smaller pitas into 6 wedges. Generously brush both sides of each wedge with oil. Sprinkle one side of each wedge with sesame seeds (if using).
3. When ready to cook, arrange the pita wedges on the grill, turning with tongs, until nicely browned, 1-2 minutes each side. Place the wedges in a single layer on a tray, platter or rack and allow to cool. The wedges will crisp on cooling.
