6-8 ounces Bacalao, Soak for 12 hours. Cut into small pieces when done

2 cups White Rice, use 2 cups white rice to make 5 cups cooked rice

1 Onion, chop finely

1 can Kidney Beans

1/4 cup Cilantro

2 Tomatoes, Chopped up

3 tbsp Vegetable Oil

 Salt, to taste

 Black Pepper, to taste

 Adobo Seasoning, optional

1 or more Jalapeño Pepper, Optional. Chop fine and add as many as you like

12 hours before cooking:
Soak the bacalao in plenty of water. Change the water at least once before starting

1 hour before cooking:
Prepare the white rice. I prefer to use a rice cooker, but any way will work.

Chop the bacalao into small pieces. In a wok, heat the oil until it's pretty hot. Add the onions and cook until they begin to get translucent. Add the tomatoes and Jalepenos (if you are using any) and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Add the bacalao and Adobo seasoning (optional) and cook for 3 or 4 minutes. Then add the rice, beans and cilantro and mix everything thoroughly. That's it! Serve nice and hot with salsa.
