In the same pan, sauté the onion in the remaining oil over medium heat until crisp-tender. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Deglaze the pan with the wine, scraping up any browned bits. Stir in the tomatoes, herbs, and the browned chicken.

Remove the pan from the oven and discard the bay leaf. Stir in the crumbled bacon. In a small bowl, toss the breadcrumbs with the parsley and minced garlic. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the top of the cassoulet. Place the pan under the broiler, 4-5 inches from the heat, and broil for 2-3 minutes until the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
