During these National Holidays, enjoy a traditional tamale. The best part is that you can have both green and red sauce in the same preparation. Tamal means wrapped, as the cooking technique involves wrapping the dough in corn or banana leaves.

This Divorced Tamale with Chicken is the perfect recipe for you. You won't have to choose between green or red; you can have both. Enjoy this Mexican recipe in an original way.
