How to make tamales | Chicken Tamales Recipe

[@bobrees4363]

Regarding the size of your tamales: As my Mom always says-- "If you criticize the cook, you just volunteered to do it next time."

Lol! Yes! I need this on a plaque in my kitcgen. 😀👍

[@marCpreciado]

Bob Rees I love that!

[@edgarserna5042]

Yeah learn to cook so i dont have to lol

[@Bebecito__78]

PERIDOT!!!!

[@daniellerees8127]

I just made these today and they are TO DIE FOR! definitely the best. I didn’t have a sieve, but I managed to make it work- I just put a strainer over the measuring cup for the chicken drippings. And I didn’t have a big pot so I just used my biggest one, put foil over the tamales and let it steam that way- it took about 2 1/2 hours total.

[@TheCheypie16]

I've watched so many tamales videos and this is by far my favorite. I know it will take time but you make it look so easy and gave tips I'd never heard before. This will definitely be the video I use as a guide. Thank you so much!

[@marywiltz8803]

I’ll bet they taste delicious. My sister is making tamales tonight for delivery tomorrow. She’s really good at it. At Christmas she’s made up to 300 dozen. Now she’s doing fancy ones, with cream cheese, jalapeño, bacon. She won a trophy for those. 👍

[@kissyface013]

Patty Pooh does your sister ship orders?

[@tazthejokertm5158]

Does she ship?

[@carolhoops6678]

I was wondering if she would share her recipe... That would be so awesome 😃

[@carolhoops6678]

What state does she live in ?

[@audraalvarado3190]

She just adds cream cheese jalapeno and bacon

[@charlesbell8299]

I made these last night for the first time. I do have to say they're a labor intensive. A mistake I made was not taste testing the meat before I wrapped my tamales. All guajillo peppers are not the same. I anm using pepper sauce on these to spice them up a bit. But the recipe worked out fine. Now I can make my own chicken tamales. Thumbs up

[@bridgetmiller117]

I enjoy watching you because you are very easy to follow. You make everything look so simple. Thanks!

[@tracyguerrero7594]

I just started watching your tutorials. I hope u feel better and I'm so glad the trolls did not discourage you to continue making tutorial videos. I really like your videos. My dad made all of these recipes and I miss him and the food brings back great memories, your cooking is similar to his, he was born in Mexico and became a chef in the United States, Thank you for taking the time to show how it's done! 😊

Thank you! I love making videos and I appreciate your kind words. I too miss my Dad in the kitchen. It's been 2 years since his passing and I think of him a lot when I cook. He was the biggest critic...lol! :)

[@jeromewalton8997]

Okay I typed in "how to make tamales chicken", your video was first and I am soooooo glad I clicked! My neighbor Anna Rosa used to make us tamales and I was hooked. After we moved my wife asked me what I wanted for my birthday one year and I said Anna Rosa's tamales, she ended up seeing her daughter at out local mall one day and mentioned that's what I wanted and her mom was so excited that that was what I wanted she ended up making me a whole batch!! Anyway I am going to try and make these myself, I loved your video, it is very detailed and also I like the tips you give about the masa. I will let you know how they turn out. Big thumbs up and subscribed!

[@WINXLEVOSS]

I really appreciate how clean oriented you are about rinsing things off twice and cleaning the ingredients your using. Thank you.

[@oliviacollier5980]

As a gringa, with little to no experience with latin dishes, I find your videos so helpful and calming. I finally get to make delicious, flavorful food to WOW my hispanic hubby. Thank you! :)

[@Cjstylescle]

Love this tutorial! I watch it everytime I make tamales. She is so thorough for the first time you make tamales and they are delicious!

[@Vulsupracom1]

Omg your videos make me wanna start cooking again. Ever since my mom passed 3 years ago I've been wanting to make tamales in her memory and your recipe is very similar to hers. Thank you.

Oh gosh, sorry to hear about your Mom's passing. I am so glad you found a recipe similar to hers. After my Dad passed 2 1/2 years ago, I find myself wishing I could learn to make his smoked brisket. I am in the works to teach myself. I think the learning process will be a good way to remember him. Thank you for watching and leaving a nice comment. :)

[@tmichelhart]

Awesome recipe. The sweetest thing is the sound of an angel playing in the background while you're cooking.

[@juliabrown4398]

This looks so easy to make but a lot a work to do but I'm gonna try this recipe this week and make it and freeze some for Christmas dinner I just finish last night making homemade pastels and that's for Christmas as well. I'm not a Hispanic person. I'm a American black women with Rican son and my boyfriend show me how to cook lots of Caribbean dishes of food so I been making all kinds of food. But I never seen a video on how to make homemade tamales.. now I seen it and yes definitely will be making it. Thank for this vlog.i been waiting in it for such along time. God bless you..

[@shawnac4925]

Ur recipe description is the best! Very helpful

[@shericastro4934]

Made these today and they were excellent! My Mexican hubby loved them and ate 7 of them right away!

[@nitaf71]

I love Mexican food but don't know how to make any of it. I am so glad I found your channel

[@redhotsweetpotatoe]

EXCELLENT tutorial! BTW: I'm glad you took some time to spend with your family (loved hearing the tiny, happy voices in the background), but I've missed your videos.

[@richardpalk5429]

My friends wife makes them for every year for my birthday. I figured they were time consuming, but wow, I had no idea. I’ll eat them slower next time. Lol

[@youtubeuser8893]

Richard Palk yes lol. My mother makes about 200 tamales ebery christmas. We start about 10am and the tamales are done and ready to eat about around 3pm. After cooking about 2 hours. Takes us 6 women 3 hours to make them.

[@youtubeuser8893]

Not including the meat prep the day before that takes about 3 hours plus the chili making.

[@smariegonzalez8617]

That's awesome.... what do you make her for her birthday???

[@sandramendoza4488]

I appriciate you being so honest with us. My mouth was watering the whole video. We are ordering tamales wednesday for family dinner can't wait. Thank you for sharing.

[@davidfowler4031]

Wow Gochujang you are the Only person who doesnt add Fluid to you Crock Pot! Thats sooo Awesome cuz you havent ever Burned anything! I love it!

I learn through my mistakes and I remember when I was worried about meat burning. I would add water and by the end of it, I would end up with way too much liquid. 😂

[@davidfowler4031]

Gochujang Mamá well you did an Excellent job and the rest of your Tamales are Awesome! I learned a lot about Tamales and other Mexican Quizine when I lived in Guadalajara, Jalisco and I sooo love all kinds! Thank you so much for Sharing my Friend! 😃 And Merry Christmas 🎄🎄🎄

Thank you! Merry Christmas to you! 😊

[@howyoudurrin5736]

I use to make beef tamales with my adopted Grandma years ago. I don't eat beef but enjoy chicken. I have never attempted to make tamales for myself but your way of explaining everything has got primed to do so.. You, Rock!!

[@PEACHESA1]

[@maureenseel118]

One of my favorite foods...There was a lady near a house we stayed at in San Diego who had a cart that she brought around in the evenings with homemade tamales. So delicious.

[@mainfriendly]

Very nice speaking and rcp.Thanks for share.

[@gayatribankeshwar618]

[@moniemonie48]

Thank you so much for posting this video!! Both my husband and I love tamales, but we don't live in an area where they're readily available (or they're just not like how my family makes them). Your recipe looks exactly like what we enjoy! Will definitely have to give it a try for the holidays. Again, thanks! :)

[@patrickhannen4832]

Thanks for showing some of the common mistakes even very seasoned cooks can make, it was incredibly useful and gave the whole video a much more at-home rustic feel. This was a great video.

[@Lucy-bs5go]

[@sherry2836]

I am making tamales this week and glad I found your video. I like your style and I like my tamales similar to yours (small tamales with thinly spread masa and finely shredded meat}. I am preparing the meat and sauces tonight for green chili chicken as well as pork with red chili sauce. I will make the dough and tamales tomorrow. Thank you for refresher course on cooking times. I always forget the amount of work involved because when you gotta have a tamale you just gotta have one!

[@kissyface013]

I'm from New Mexico and i have never learned how to make tamales, looks easy, just time consuming..thank you for posting this video, me and some friends are gonna try this before Christmas!

[@vocabularyenthusiast]

Hey! I wanted to comment on your next video but comments are disabled. So I'll take this opportunity to tell you how awesome I think you are! Your recipes remind me of San Antonio which I had to move away from and miss so much. Living in northern CA leaves me wanting for this type of food and now I can cook it thanks to you! Feel better and keep being awesome.

I say next month so I can find the recipes to change out what I cook now. I do thank you for all your wonderful videos.

[@spacewolfcub]

😱 I can’t believe I was today days old when I realized: Mexico has hallacas too!! I’m on a quest now: stew in dough cooked in a leaf around the world! ☺️ 🧳 Thanks for this lovely video. The high production value made it feel very educational but your honesty made it feel homey. 🥰

[@Cyllynify]
