Chicken Ropa Vieja and Cilantro Lime Rice

More winning recipes from skinnytastecom

Yesterday I defrosted a half chicken and discovered I had all the ingredients to make Chicken Ropa Vieja from skinny taste.com! I added a chicken breast too, so I know when it had all finished there was more than four cups, which was what the recipe made. But more for me and weekend friends! I also added more tomato sauce and wine, and at the end chopped up a handful of cilantro. The cilantro really put this dish over the top! I served it over the Cilantro Lime Rice recipe also linked below, but I used brown rice instead. Yummy good too!

  1. I forgot to mention, I also love cumin, so I used at least 3 tsp. (not 1 tsp.)
