12 large dried corn husks, soaked in warm water for 30 minutes
Makes approx. 12 tamales.
Spread approximately 1/2 Cup masa on each of the corn husks. Place a good spoonful of filling in the middle and fold husk to enclose the filling. Fold the bottom over and repeat.
Place tamales in a steamer pan, folded side down and place a couple of inches of water in the bottom. Place the lid on and put over moderate heat to steam - making sure the water level does not reduce down too much. Steam tamales 50 to 60 minutes. Remove from the pan and let rest for 5 minutes before serving with Sweet Chipotle Sauce, avocado and creme Fraiche.
Shred the chicken breast. Heat Fustini’s Single Varietal olive oil in a large skillet over moderate heat and add onion. Sauté onion for 3 to 5 minutes. Add the shredded chicken, Sweet Chipotle Sauce and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook over low heat until slightly thickened. Let cool completely.
Whisk together masa, salt and baking soda. Place lard in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and process until smooth and creamy. In 3 additions, add the masa mixture processing each addition until incorporated. With the mixer on low, drizzle in the chicken stock until the mixture is not sticky anymore. Set Aside.
