Stated plan
Capture the rook on d8 with check, forcing a favorable simplifying trade.
Reasoning
White's rook on d7 attacks the black rook on d8 along the d-file, and since e8/f8 are empty, capturing gives check along the 8th rank. Black is forced to recapture with the queen (Qxd8), trading rooks and simplifying into a roughly balanced position while keeping White's pieces active and avoiding any tactical tricks (like losing the rook to a subsequent fork). This is clearly better than passive alternatives, which allow Black to consolidate the extra pawn and keep two active rooks.
