Chicken Ropa Vieja (shredded chicken)

This wonderful dish has the same great flavor as the Cuban dish beef ropa vieja (shredded beef) but since it is chicken it has less calories and it is healthier. This delicious stew can be served over plain white rice and ripe boil plantains. This great flavored shredded chicken breast with that great taste of Hispanic cuisine with plenty of sweet red peppers is hearty enough to eat it by itself.
