Chicken Tamale (Lean Filling, Minimal Lard)

Chicken Tamale (Lean Filling, Minimal Lard) is a traditional Mesoamerican-style prepared snack or street food consisting of seasoned shredded chicken wrapped in masa (corn dough) and steamed in a corn husk. It is commonly eaten as a portable meal or part of festive breakfasts and regional celebrations. Nutritionally, Chicken Tamale (Lean Filling, Minimal Lard) provides a notable amount of protein with about 8g of protein per 100g, alongside carbohydrates from the masa and modest fat from added lard or cooking oils; it also contributes B vitamins such as niacin and trace minerals like selenium. From a health perspective, this tamale delivers good-quality protein and satisfying energy for a meal, but it's relatively low in fiber and plant-derived antioxidants compared with vegetable-forward dishes, so pairing it with salsa, salad or extra vegetables can boost its overall nutritional balance.Read more
