Saute bacon and garlic in butter until bacon is partially cooked. Discard garlic. Add chicken and brown on all sides. Stir in onion and saute until transparent. Add 1/4 cup wine and cook a few minutes, stirring to loosen browned particles.

Add parsley, chives, seasonings, mushrooms and broth. Cover and cook over low heat for 30 minutes, or until chicken is tender. Remove chicken and keep warm. Discard bay leaf.
