Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 1h10m

Yield 25 tamales

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 cups maseca corn masa harina flour, mix for tamales
6 cups chicken broth
1 cup corn oil or 1 cup other vegetable oil (corn will enhance the flavor)
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 large rotisserie chicken
2 (15 ounce) jars green tomatillo sauce
1 bag corn husk

Steps:

  • Soak the corn husks in warm water until soft.
  • Using an electric mixer, blend the masa flour (Maseca for Tamales), corn oil, salt, baking powder and the chicken broth to obtain a consistent mixture.
  • Shred the chicken and marinate in the green salsa or tomatillo sauce.
  • Spread masa evenly over corn husks, and spread a spoonful of marinated chicken on top of the masa.
  • Fold the sides of the corn husk to center over the masa so that they overlap to make a long package.
  • Fold the empty part of the husk under so that it rests against the side of the tamale with a seam.
  • Place the tamales in a steamer and cook tamales for 35-40 minutes.
  • Check every 20 minutes.
  • The tamale is cooked when it separates easily from the corn husk.

I would not recommend this recipe. The chicken tamales were not good. The chicken was dry and the masa was tough.

I followed the recipe exactly, but the chicken tamales didn't turn out as good as I expected. They were a little bland.

I'm not a huge fan of tamales, but these chicken tamales were really good. The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the masa was soft and fluffy.
