Wash chicken and pat dry with paper towels.
Brown the chicken in the oil in a cast iron skillet, if possible or in a wide, heavy-based skillet, over medium-high heat. Season chicken parts well with some salt and a lot of black pepper. Add chicken, skin-side down; cook until skin is well browned and crisp, about 10 minutes.
Turn chicken over; reduce heat to medium; partially cover the pan with a lid or another pan that has been inverted over; continue cooking another 15 minutes.
Add in onion, garlic and peppers with the chicken. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes. Add the sausage; continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the sausage is well browned and cooked through.
Check chicken to see if it is cooked through; cook another 10 - 15 minutes until the juices from a thigh pieces will run clear when pricked with a fork.
Serve immediately.
