30 Minute Chicken Tamales

I found this recipe on recipesleuth and can't wait to make it.

Soak the corn husks in warm water until soft.

Using an electric mixer , blend the masa flour , 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.
