Garlic Sauced Chicken

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 (2 1/2 pound) chicken, quartered
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 cups boiling water
Salt and pepper
Paprika
1 Bay leaf

Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned, about 5 minutes per side. Remove chicken; keep warm.

Add onion and garlic to drippings in skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until vegetables are a deep golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add flour. Cook, stirring continually, until golden brown.

Nicholas picked tater tots and curly fries as a side dish, so here he is getting them ready. The kids absolutely LOVE cooking and I'm so thrilled.
