The first time I made this, I followed the recipe pretty closely, and it was okay. Since then, I've tweaked the marinade a bit by doubling the chili powder and adding a splash of lemon juice and a pinch each of cayenne pepper, cumin, and cinnamon. I usually leave out the corn and beans, and I let the veggies marinate for at least 2 hours. I love this recipe with those additions—it's so easy and flavorful—and I end up making it pretty frequently.

I liked these. They're nothing fancy, but great for an easy, laid-back meal when you don't feel like spending your day in the kitchen. Tasty, too.

These were quick and easy. I used buttermilk instead of regular milk, and only enough to make the dough hold together—it only took about 3/4 cup. I'd assume that the people whose biscuits were too dense just didn't need to use as much milk. Also, I'm a bit lazy, so I kneaded the dough right in the bowl, and just placed globs of it on the cookie sheet rather than roll it out. The biscuits turned out great (although they'd have been prettier if I'd rolled them out). Instead of refrigerating the dough, you can freeze it once you've formed the biscuits; just pop the frozen biscuit dough in the oven, and add about 5 minutes to the baking time.
