  Preheat you grill at high temperature. Cut three medium-sized pita breads into half and open them with a sharp knife. Place them in warm grill and let them be golden brown from one side. Turn the pita slice to the other side and wait for another few minutes until both sides are equally golden brown.

  Remove the pita slices from the grill and set them aside to cool. Later on, cut them into bite-sized pieces.
