Trim all the fat and cut chicken into bite-sized cubes. Place in a gallon freezer bag or lidded container suitable for marinating. Mix chicken, olive oil, vinegar, wine, herbs, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Seal bag or container and let marinate in the fridge for 2-3 hours.
Wrap pitas in aluminum foil and heat in a 325°F oven for 10 minutes. Sauté chicken on medium-high heat until cooked through and no longer pink, about 10 minutes or so.
To serve, place several pieces of chicken down the center of warm pita, add desired toppings, fold up and eat.
