Dark meat (legs and thighs) work best in this recipe because they stay moist and flavorful.

Directions

Peel the garlic and slice thinly. Skin the chicken pieces and salt and pepper well.
Heat oil (medium-high) and brown the chicken.
Reduce heat to low, add garlic slices and raisins. Cook and stir for several minutes. Mix tomato paste and water, add and stir in. Stir in the tarragon.
Cover and simmer until the chicken is tender, 20 - 30 minutes. Stir in the peanuts. Correct the seasoning and serve hot over rice or noodles.
