So full of flavor and it was a huge hit at our house. I highly recommend this meal!

Trim fat from the chuck roast, then season it with salt and pepper. Brown the roast on both sides and remove it to a plate.

1

Add the onions and peppers, then cook. Add the garlic and spices, then cook.

2

Add the wine and deglaze. Add the chicken broth, crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, carrot, celery, and bay leaves. Add the beef back. Simmer and cook.

3

Remove the beef and shred. Remove the carrot, celery, and bay leaves and discard. Add the beef back, followed by the olives, pimentos, and capers, then cook. Season and garnish.

This flavor-packed Ropa Vieja combines tender, slow-cooked melt-in your mouth chuck roast with onions, bell peppers, garlic, green olives, pimentos, and capers into a tasty tomato sauce seasoned with paprika and cumin.
