Steps:

1) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 2) Cover bottom of large roasting pan with olive oil. Add onions and garlic and brown lightly. Salt, pepper chicken parts and lightly brown. 3) place tomatoes with juice in blender or food processor (I just break the tomatoes up by hand) and blend briefly to break up. Add sugar, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper, oregano, basil, thyme, & bay leaf. Mix well and add green peppers. 4) Remove chicken pieces to large shallow baking dishes. Layer dark meat in one and white meat in another. Pour sauce over all and cover with foil. Bake one hour (or less). 5) Remove foil, increase oven heat to 450 degrees and bake until chicken is delicately brown. Baste with sauce a few times and serve with your favorite small pasta.
