Clean the sardines and pat dry with a paper towel.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion and garlic until the onion becomes translucent.
Add the diced tomatoes, sugar, salt, black pepper, and chili pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine the ingredients.
Lay the sardines on top of the tomato mixture. Cover the skillet and simmer over low heat for about 10 minutes, until the sardines are cooked through.
