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.
