Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line one large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set it aside.
In a large bowl, stir olive oil, salt, oregano, and paprika. Set it aside.
Cut each pita bread in half. You get two half moons. Cut each half in half again to form 4 triangles. Cut each triangle in half to get eight pita chips per pita bread.
Repeat this step for each pita bread.
Bring all the pita chips to the large bowl and carefully stir using your hands or a wooden spoon until all chips are covered.
Lay the chips in a single layer on the baking sheet.
Bake the chips for 8 minutes, flip them to their other side, and bake them again for 6-7 minutes. The pita chips are ready when golden brown and crispy. You can bake them longer to make them ultra-crispy. Adjust the time to your taste.
Cool down on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then serve with Eggplant Dip or White Bean Hummus.
