Update 3/15/20 make this all the time with leftover grilled chicken. Tonight though I made it with some leftover carnitas- Mexican grilled shredded pork in a salsa verde type sauce oh so yummy!- This was even more delicious than the chicken and I am not a big pork lover. Make my carnitas with a whole pork loin roast though so it is much leaner than traditional carnitas. Absolutely delicious! I will definitely be using left over shredded smoked or grilled pork from now on just as often as I do chicken. Another tweak I made was only use half the enchilada sauce over the tamal (cornbread) layer. I mix the other half with the meat along with a cup of black beans and a cup of frozen corn. Mix those well and layer on top of the tamal (cornbread) Original review in 2005 I think. This is so tasty and so fast we made it the night before Thanksgiving in about 5 minutes! We used some leftover chicken which made this really fast. Love that it is lighter in fat and calories and that only my dd and I knew that! It tastes like a very naughty and delicious dish! Used Hatch TexMex red enchilada sauce and light rather than nonfat products but that was the only change. Thanks for a great recipe! *Made for Bevy Tag* PS This freezes really well!
