Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 350°F. Place the pita halves cut side up on a baking sheet,
brush with one tablespoon of the oil, and bake until golden and crisp, 4 to
6 minutes. Let cool, then break into pieces.

In a bowl, whisk together the vinegar, oregano, remaining three tablespoons
of oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Set aside for dressing.

In a large bowl, add the lettuce, tomatoes, bell pepper, cucumber, onion,
chickpeas, feta, pepperoncini and olives, if using. Toss to combine.

Add dressing and pita chips to individual bowls and toss.
