I've always wanted to try to make a classic dish my own. It turned out pretty good.

Steps

1

If using bacalao or a salty white fish you need to soak fish in water overnight or for 2 hours, changing water every 15 minutes. If using a not as salty fish like haddock, just soak for 30 minutes. Start to boil water. Peel & cut potatoes, put in a bowl with water (to prevent browning) until you are ready. Boil water, and put fish & potatoes in (you can separate them if you want). Let boil for 20-25 minutes, test with fork.
2

While fish is boiling, chop your vegetables and set aside. Add garlic. When fish/potatoes are done, let drain & set aside. Shred fish.
3

Heat oil in pan. Add vegetables & mix around. Let cook until translucent. Add sazon, black pepper, oregano and some adobo, mix and let cook for a few minutes.
4

Add tomato sauce, water & sofrito. Let boil/simmer for 3 minutes. Add fish & potatoes and more black pepper & adobo to taste.
5

Mix around til everything is covered in sauce mixture. Let simmer for 5-7minutes. Taste add salt/pepper if needed. Best served with white rice.
