4 steps
  1. 01

    Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Tear the pita bread into bite-size pieces, spread them on a tray, and bake for 6 to 8 minutes, until crisp and lightly golden.

  2. 02

    Place the romaine lettuce, tomato, cucumber, radish, fresh parsley, and fresh mint in a large bowl.

  3. 03

    Whisk together the lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, pomegranate molasses, sumac, salt, and black pepper.

  4. 04

    Add the toasted pita bread to the vegetables, pour over the dressing, and toss just before serving so the bread keeps some crunch.
