Here's a way to get that great tamale taste in an easy casserole version.

Tamale Pie Recipe (+)

Directions

Chop onion, garlic and pepper(s). Heat oil and cook onion, garlic and pepper until softened-- about 5 minutes. Mix meat with 3/4 teaspoon salt, crumble and add to pan. Cook and stir until meat is done.
Add tomatoes, corn, broth and chile powder. Simmer together while preparing the corn meal.
Preheat oven to 350Â° F.
Bring 2 cups water to a boil; slowly add corn meal, stirring vigorously to prevent lumping. (Mixture will be quite thick.) Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste.
Stir corn meal mixture into other ingredients. Sprinkle cheese over the top and bake about 30 minutes.
TIP: if you use an oven-proof skillet to prepare ingredients, bake the pie in it and save cleaning up an extra dish.
