Исходное описание на английском языке. Русский перевод ещё не добавлен.

Tamal de pollo is a Salvadorian variety of a tamale that is usually filled with shredded chicken. The chicken is stewed with potatoes, chickpeas, and olives. The combination is mixed with corn masa, and it is then wrapped in banana leaves and boiled or steamed. This tamal is often made with recaudo sauce, made with onions, bell peppers, garlic, and tomatoes, imparting a bit of extra flavor to the dish. Once tamal de pollo is fully cooked, it can be consumed immediately, but some people say that it's even better the next day, when all the flavors are combined and the texture becomes even better. It is recommended to serve the dish on its own, but it can also be served with sour cream and black beans.
