Como fazer Papa's Favorite Pasta Sauce

Wash and cut 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces.
Pat chicken dry with paper towels.
Season chicken with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
Set seasoned chicken aside.
In a large saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Sauté 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced, until softened (about 5 minutes).
Add chicken pieces skin-side down (if using bone-in chicken) and brown lightly on all sides.
Add 2 bell peppers (any color), chopped, 28 ounces canned crushed tomatoes, 1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste, 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or to taste), and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low-medium. Cover and simmer for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and sauce has thickened.
If the sauce becomes too thick during cooking, add 1/2 can (about 4 ounces) of water, a little at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve over your favorite pasta.
