Como fazer African Saucy Chicken

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until softened (about 5 minutes).
Stir in 2 tablespoons tomato paste, 1 tablespoon paprika, 2 tablespoons water, 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
Add 1 (13.5 ounce) can full-fat coconut milk and 1/2 cup peanut butter. Stir until combined. Let cool slightly, then transfer to a food processor and puree until completely smooth.
Season 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken thighs in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Transfer the browned chicken to your slow cooker.
Pour the peanut butter sauce over the chicken in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
Stir in 1-2 jalapeños, finely chopped (remove seeds for less heat), and 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro or parsley. Cook on high for 20 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
