Chicken Ropa Vieja Recipe

Recipe By All Recipes

Ropa vieja is a mainstay of the cuban-american diet. It's traditionally made with skirt steak, a stringy cut of meat with the poetic name fajita (girdle) in spanish. This recipe uses chicken breast and is fantastic; the leftovers are even better. It is wonderful served with white rice and fried plantains or a pineapple-coconut slaw.
