EASY! TAMALE PIE CASSEROLE - KITCHEN DREAMING



Easy! Tamale Pie Casserole - Kitchen Dreaming image

Unlike other Tamale pies that start with a corn bread crust, this one uses masa harina typical of traditional tamales. It is then steam-baked in the oven and topped with salsa, salsa verde, sour cream, or you favorite hot sauce.

Total Time 60 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 45 minutes

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups Masa Harina ([See Note 1])
2 cups Chicken broth ([See Note 2])
1 teaspoon Baking powder
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1/2 cup Canola oil
1-1/2 lbs. Pork shoulder, lean, shredded ([See Note 3])
1 cup Salsa Verde ([See Note 4])
1 cup Fiesta Corn ([See Note 5])
1/4 cup Green olives, sliced ([See Note 6])
1/2 cup Onion, diced small ([See Note 7])
Chopped Cilantro
Pico de Gallo (Fresh Salsa)
Sour Cream
Additional Salsa Verde
Enchilada sauce
White Cheese Sauce
Cojita Cheese

Steps:

  • Prepare the filling. Combine 1 to 1-1/2 lbs of shredded meat with 1 cup of Salsa Verde. If you are using diced onions, fiesta corn, and sliced olives, adds them here. Note: Shredded rotisserie chicken makes this recipe super easy for any weeknight meal.
  • Prepare Dough. Combine masa, warm chicken broth, baking powder, salt, and oil in a large bowl, Mix together until the dough has the consistency of a soft paste. Cover & let rest for at least 15 minutes at room temperature so the dough can thoroughly absorb the liquid ingredients
  • Preheat the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and lightly oil a 9 x 9-inch (2-1/2 quart) casserole dish. This will not quite fit in an 8 x 8-inch (2-quart) dish. NOTE: If you do not have a 2-1/2 quart casserole, move up to a 13x9-inch (3-quart) dish to prevent spillage.
  • Form the Bottom Tamale Layer. Press half of the tamale dough into the casserole dish forming a thin bottom layer. With your fingers, a fork, or a small spatula, press the mixture evenly across the bottom of the pan and halfway up the sides, about 1/4- inch thick.
  • Add the Filling. Spoon the meat mixture prepared earlier evenly over the entire dough surface.
  • Prepare the top tamale layer. Spread the remaining tamale dough over the filling, trying to make the top portion about the same thickness as the bottom. Do this by spreading the dough out on a piece of plastic wrap and then inverting it over the tamale casserole and then peeling back the plastic wrap. If it tears a little bit, don't worry! It will come together during baking.
  • Create the Steam Bath. Fill a large roasting pan with about 2 inches of hot water. Place the uncovered tamale casserole into the water bath. Cover both the tamale casserole and roaster pan with one layer of aluminum foil and place in oven. The water will steam the tamale and cook it all the way through.
  • Bake. Bake for 45 to 60-minutes or until the Masa layer is set. Let it cool slightly (10-minutes) before serving so it holds its form.
  • Serve. Serve warm with pico de gallo, salsa verde, sour cream, cheese sauce, enchilada sauce, crumbled cheese, chopped onions, or a traditional red salsa. There's no wrong way to eat a tamale!
  • Store. Store any leftover tamale pie covered in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
  • Freeze. Alternatively, tamale pie may also be frozen in smaller portions and reheated in the microwave. This makes a quick and easy weekday lunch.Warm at 50% power until heated through.

Easy Tamale Casserole Recipe | Allrecipes image

My mom liked to make the Hamburger Helper® version of this recipe. When I moved to another state, I could not find it, so I came up with this. Memories of home. My hubby likes for me to spice this up sometimes, so I will use a 14-ounce can of tomatoes and green chiles in it or just use a Mexican-style cornbread mix sometimes.

FELICIANO TAMALE CASSEROLE | JUST A PINCH RECIPES
Another recipe born by my desire to make things quicker in a casserole, as opposed to forming individual tamales by hand. It's a family favorite. If you can find Masa Harina, use that instead of the corn meal mix. It tastes more like real tamales. It's usually in the international aisle, in 5-pound bags like flour.

  • NEW NOTE On the Masa Harina: I had to buy a new brand of Masa Harina because my store stopped carrying the old one. This one was labeled INSTANT Masa (corn) flour for tortillas, tamales, etc. It uses COLD water, not hot. I used the boiling like I always do with regular cornmeal, and got a very thick lump. I had to beat and beat to get it smooth enough to spread. So watch what type of Masa flour you get. Boiling water works fine with cornmeal, but use cold water on the instant masa harina.

  • "Using a large skillet, brown the ground beef and crumble as it cooks. Set aside. Using the same skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil and cook the onion and jalapeno pepper until soft and lightly brown, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic, cook and stir for an additional 2 minutes. Return the cooked ground beef to the skillet with the onion and pepper. Add corn, tomatoes, tomato sauce, chili powder and cumin. Stir and continue cooking until mixture comes to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for another 7-8 minutes. Pour this mixture into an oven safe casserole dish. Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top of the mixture and set aside. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees while making the topping. In a bowl, mix the cornmeal, flour, salt, baking powder and chopped parsley. In a smaller bowl, mix egg, milk, oil, chipotle pepper and adobo sauce. Add the egg mixture to the cornmeal mixture and stir just enough to moisten and mix everything. Pour the cornbread topping over the meat and cheese in the casserole and bake about 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Serve hot. "

TRADITIONAL MASA RECIPE - TAMALE DOUGH RECIPE | FOOD & WINE
Paola Briseño González often uses duck fat for her masa preparada for tamales but switches to shortening for vegetarian guests. Whether you grind your own homemade fresh masa or you pick some up at a local Latin market, it’s the secret to perfect tamales. A dough made from masa harina can be used if fresh masa is unavailable, but it will lack the sweet corn aroma and fluffy texture of fresh masa. For convenient-yet-flavorful alternatives to fresh masa, try the masa harina from Masienda (from $7, masienda.com), made from single-origin heirloom corn sourced from Oaxaca, or Gold Mine’s Organic Yellow Masa Harina (from $10, amazon.com).

  • Reduce speed to medium-low, and gradually stream in 1/2 cup chicken stock. Beat until mixture is well combined and smooth, 3 to 5 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape sides of bowl. The masa preparada should have the consistency of thick cake batter. If mixture is too thick, add additional chicken stock, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating well after each addition, until correct consistency is achieved. Cover bowl with a damp towel, and proceed with assembling tamales.
