2. Filling: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef, onions, and red bell pepper and cook until beef is cooked through and onions are softened. Season with beef bouillon and all seasoning. Add garlic and sauté 30 seconds. Add corn, black beans, diced tomatoes, green chiles, tomato paste and beef broth and stir until well combined. Heat over medium heat to warm through then stir in cheese; set aside.
3. Topping: Whisk together all the dry ingredients (masa harina, baking powder, salt) in a large bowl. In another bowl, beat the egg and chicken broth until combined, then mix that into the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir in the melted butter followed by cheese.
4. Assemble: Remove 1/2 cup of the masa batter and stir it into the filling then transfer the filling into prepared pan and spread into an even layer. Transfer the remaining masa batter to the 9x13 and evenly spread over the filling. Bake for 30-40 minutes. Note that the topping may not look cooked so make sure to check it anyway with a toothpick; tamale pie is done when a toothpick inserted into the center of the masa topping comes out clean. Serve warm with sour cream, salsa, hot sauce, tomatoes, avocados, etc.
