Cut each chicken thigh into 8 pieces.
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir cook chicken, garlic and onions for 5-7 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink inside.
In a bowl, combine sauce ingredients and stir until blended. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
Warm pita breads in the microwave for 10 seconds. Open pita breads to make pockets.
Put 1/4 of the chicken mixture into each pocket and top with tomato, cucumber and sauce. Serve immediately.
Tip: for an even quicker version of this meal, use leftover cooked chicken and store-bought tzatziki sauce. If you don’t have pita breads, wrap the filling in large flour tortillas.
