I use an electric frying pan with a lid to make this recipe.

Stir up any brown bits, cover and let cook, stirring occasionally until tender, about 8 minutes.
Put chicken back in pan, on top of onions.
Add bay leaves to pan, pour wine over top of chicken.
Heat until most of wine has evaportated, leaving a syrupy mixture, about another 8 minutes.
Pour chicken (or turkey) broth over chicken.
Turn heat down to 325 F, cover and cook for 30 minutes.
