Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of oil. Once the oil is hot, add the mushrooms.
Stir occasionally and cook for 8-10 minutes, until golden and tender.
Add sofrito to the mushrooms and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add onions, tomato sauce, water, black pepper, and sazon. Stir to combine.
Once at a boil, reduce heat to simmer. Cover pan with a lid.
Cook for 20 minutes stirring occasionally. Increase temperature to medium and remove lid and cook for an additional 5 minutes.

Notes
Feel free to add more or less sazon, according to what you like.
I used shiitake mushrooms. If you use common mushrooms, they will shrink significantly. If you decide to use them, I recommend doubling the mushroom amount.
Sazon can be found online at Amazon.com, or at most big-box grocery stores including Walmart and Safeway.
