Cómo hacer deliciosos tamales norteños | Receta especial de tamales norteños | Cocina Vital

In a large bowl, mix masa harina, baking powder, and salt.

In another bowl, beat lard or shortening until fluffy, then gradually add masa mixture and chicken broth until a soft dough forms.

In a separate bowl, combine shredded chicken, salsa verde, onions, and cilantro to make the filling.

Take a soaked corn husk, spread about 1/4 cup of masa dough on the husk, leaving space at the edges.

Place 1-2 tablespoons of the chicken filling in the center of the masa.

Fold the sides of the husk over the filling, then fold the bottom up to secure the tamale.

Repeat with remaining husks, masa, and filling.

Place tamales upright in a steamer pot, cover with a damp cloth, and steam for about 1-1.5 hours until masa is firm.

Check water level in the steamer and add more if necessary during cooking.

Let tamales cool slightly before serving.
