Puerto Rican Fish Stew

For the traditional Puerto Rican Fish Stew, it's called Bacalo which it has the salted dried codfish.

I saw the website (Lifescript) that were alternating it to have the healthier version by using the fresh white fish instead.

I decided to add those shrimps for more kick-in flavors. You can add any seafoods as your choice if you like to. I did a little bit alternating this recipe :).


Ingredients:

2 tbsp olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound of any white fish, your choice (cut into 1 inches cube)
1 14 oz can of diced tomatoes
1 jalapeno, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
2 tbsp green olives, finely chopped
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup water

Throw all of the ingredients into the big pan and let it cook until the white fish becomes flakey. The sauce itself will thicken up too.

You may add chopped avocado as a topping if you like to.

Enjoy the cuisine of the tropical island in Puerto Rico :D
