Ropa Vieja (Cuban Beef)
This Cuban braised beef dish literally translates to 'old clothes,' because apparently some people thought the fall-apart meat and colorful strips of onions and peppers, tangled together, looked like old, tattered clothing. You'll love this dish if you're into big, bold flavors, since there's nothing subtle about the seasoning here. Delicious served with beans, rice, and plantain chips. Garnish with more cilantro.
Korean Kebabs
These Korean-inspired kebabs are juicy and really easy to prepare — in the oven or on a BBQ grill. I've made these for years, and they're still a huge favorite with family and friends. I serve them with mushroom rice and garlic bread. This is a sauceless recipe, but the meat is so succulent you don't need it.
