Lightly toast peppers on the bare surface of a large Dutch oven over medium heat, stirring, until the peppers begin to have a toasted aroma, 2 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat immediately.

Using a stick blender, puree the pepper mixture until smooth.

Add bay leaves, cumin, and oregano to pepper sauce; leave sauce on low simmer while preparing chicken.

Cook onion slices in the same skillet until beginning to brown slightly, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds more.
