Authentic Chicken Enchilada Ring Recipe?

We had a meeting with the president of our organization on Tuesday, and it was catered by the president's neighbor. At first, I thought it an odd looking dish. It was essentially a chicken stuffed bundt cake, but the cake was a type of cormeal/maize breading. The stuffing seemed to be a combination of shredded chicken, tomato sauce, green chiles, Mexican seasonings, and a sprinkling of corn. I figure I could replicate that reasonably well, but I'm stumped about the cornmeal/maize cake part. It was absolutely delicious. I took some home, and gave some to my mom. She too was skeptical about it's appearance: chicken bundt cake. But she LOVED it. Anyone have any idea what I'm talking about? If so, do you have a recipe you'd like to share?

A tamale is basically a corn meal dough (masa) with various fillings that is steamed in a corn husk. What you are describing essentially sounds to me like a giant ring-shaped tamale (minus the steaming in a corn husk aspect). SoI would try using an instant corn masa mix (found in the Mexican or Latin section of the supermarket).

I had thought about corn bread, but the texture, color and flavor wouldn't quite match what I had on Tuesday. I do love corn bread though. It would probably be a really good substitute if I am not able to come up with a closer match.

So…I would try using an “instant corn masa mix” (found in the Mexican or Latin section of the supermarket). That sounds perfect, ice-queen! I hadn't even thought about the dough as resembling that from a tamale, but now that you mention it, it sounds right on! Thanks so much. I'm going to run out this weekend and try to find some instant corn masa mix! Chicken TAMALE ring for everyone!

So sorry to disappoint, JC. However, I already think this dish could have some magical/engagement properties. It's so unique and tasty. My bf and I are planning engagement in the fall. Maybe I'll make this for him mid-summer and see if it speeds things up at all.
