Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat the Pot Roast in a Pot of boiling water in the bag. Once hot, pull apart and shred.
  2. In a sauté pan, add the oil garlic, and the sliced vegetables. Cook over medium heat until caramelized.  Add the white wine and bring it to a rapid boil, deglazing the bottom of the pan (scraping up the browned bits on the bottom of the pan).
  3. Add the broth, Sofrito and bay leaves. Simmer for 5 minutes.
  4. Add the shredded pot roast to the pot roast. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
  5. Stir in the olives and roasted red peppers. Simmer uncovered to thicken the sauce for 20 minutes. Stir in the parsley and add salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve over top of warm Cilantro Lime Rice and garnish with pita bread and fried plantains.
