In a medium saucepan, bring the vinegar, broth, honey and tomato paste to a boil, stirring well. Simmer low the vinegar sauce until reduced to 1/2 cup, about 10-12 minutes.

Return the chicken to the skillet, skin side up. Cover and simmer over low heat until cooked through, about 20 minutes. Transfer the chicken to plates.
Add the creme fraiche to the skillet and boil for 3 minutes. Add the tarragon and season with salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over the chicken and serve.
