Braised flank steak with tomatoes, peppers, and onions is a homey, comforting meal on a chilly evening. Ropa vieja, which translates as “old clothes,” gets its name from the look of the shredded meat. Serve it over rice, spoon it into corn or flour tortillas for tacos, or use it as a filling for burritos or enchiladas.
