Ropa Vieja is a flavorful and tender shredded beef dish that is popular in Panama. The beef is slow-cooked with onions, bell peppers, garlic, and tomatoes until it becomes tender and easily shredded. The dish gets its name, which translates to 'old clothes,' from the shredded appearance of the beef. Ropa Vieja is typically served with white rice and black beans, creating a satisfying and comforting meal.
