  1. SOAK corn husks in hot water 30 min. Meanwhile, bring water and tomatillo husks to boil in saucepan. Discard tomatillo husks; reserve tomatillo water. Combine chicken and salsa. Mix masa harina, baking powder, lard, chicken broth and reserved tomatillo water until mixture forms a stiff dough.

  2. ASSEMBLE tamales by spreading about 1/4 cup masa mixture (tamale dough) into 3x2-inch rectangle down center of each of 16 corn husks, leaving about 2 inches at top of husk; cover masa on each husk with 1 epazote leaf, 2 Tbsp. cheese and 1/4 cup chicken mixture. Fold over both sides of each husk and 1 end to enclose filling.

  3. PLACE tamales, open ends up, in tamalera; top with remaining corn husks. Cover with lid. Steam 1 hour or until tamales pull away from husks, adding more water to pan and adjusting heat as necessary to maintain a gentle boil. Cool tamales slightly before serving.
