step-by-step
instructions
1 Make the pita croutons & roast the onion

Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 450°F. Line a sheet pan with foil. Halve and peel the onion; cut into 1/2-inch-wide wedges. Transfer to one side of the sheet pan; drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Cut each pita into 8 equal-sized wedges. Transfer the pita wedges to the other side of the sheet pan of seasoned onion. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper; turn to coat. Roast 9 to 11 minutes, or until the onion is tender and the pitas are lightly browned and slightly crispy. Remove from the oven.

2 Prepare the remaining ingredients

Meanwhile, wash and dry the fresh produce. Halve the tomatoes. Pit and roughly chop the olives and dates. In a large bowl, combine the tomatoes, chopped olives and dates, and vinegar. Season with salt, pepper, and the oregano. Toss to combine.

3 Make the salad and serve your dish

Just before serving, to the bowl of dressed tomatoes, olives, and dates, add the arugula, toasted pita chips, roasted onion, and a drizzle of olive oil. Toss to combine. Serve the salad garnished with the cheese. Enjoy!
