Heat a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until it starts to soften and turn translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and, if you like your orange peppers very soft, add them now. Cook for another 30 seconds, until the garlic is fragrant.
Pour in the tomato sauce and add the green chilies, chili powder, ground mustard, brown sugar, and red wine vinegar. Season with salt and pepper.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Let it cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your liking and coats the back of a spoon.
