Fried Garlic Pita

I sort of made up this recipe, and it turned out to be pretty good. I was trying to imitate a pita with garlic butter sauce appetizer this one restaurant makes.

Original recipe makes 4 servings

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter, divided
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, divided
2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
2 small (4 inch) pita bread rounds, cut in half
