Wash chicken and pat dry. Mix flour, salt, paprika and pepper. Heat salad oil (1/4 inch) in large skillet. Coat chicken with flour mixture. Cook chicken in oil over medium heat 15 to 20 minutes or until light brown. Reduce heat; cover tightly and simmer 30 to 40 minutes or until thickest pieces are fork-tender.
