In non-stick frypan, pour olive oil. Heat about 2 minutes on medium temperature. Add chicken and cook about 6 minutes.
Turn chicken, add onion and cook about 6 minutes more until onion is clear and chicken is tender. Remove from heat. Cut chicken into thin slices across grain of breast; place in bowl. Add sauteed onion; sprinkle with salt and pepper, mixing carefully. Add vinegar and chives; mix well.
In small bowl, mix together yogurt and cucumber.
On each piece of pita bread, spread 2 tablespoons yogurt-cucumber sauce. Then place 1/4 of the chicken mixture on pita bread; fold in half, wrap in plastic wrap and chill in refrigerator for at least 2 hours. Repeat for remaining sandwiches.
