With a paring knife, cut a 1-inch-long slit in thick side of breast. Insert knife, and without enlarging opening, carefully work around inside to form a pocket (make sure you do not go through the other side).
Into each breast, place 2 Tbsp cheese and 1 slice of bacon, close pocket using 2 to 3 toothpicks. Then place in a plastic zipper lock bag, and pour enough wine to cover chicken at let marinate for 2-4 hours in fridge.
Place on a foil lined baking sheet, rub with olive oil and season with salt and pepper and bake at 400°F until done - approx. 30 to 35 minutes.
