Make It Now Cooking Directions

These directions are for cooking this recipe to serve immediately and NOT to freeze for later.

1. Place corn husks in a bowl of warm water and soak until soft.
2. Meanwhile, beat together corn masa, oil, salt, baking powder, and broth until smooth. Set aside.
3. In another bowl, toss together chicken and salsa verde.
4. Spread about 1/2 cup of masa mixture over each corn husk and top with about 1/4 cup of chicken mixture. Fold in the sides of the corn husk, forming a long package. Then fold the ends toward the center on the seam side.
5. Repeat until all tamales are filled.
6. Fill a large pot with 1-2 inches of water and bring to a boil.
7. Place tamales in a steamer basket and drop into the pot. Steam for 35-40 minutes or until the husk peels away from the corn mixture easily. Check tamales about halfway through.
