I agree with others about the dough not cooking right. I made the bisquits smaller and cooked them longer, but still too doughy. Instead we put them in a taco shell, very deicious.

We love Mexican food so this recipe caught my eye. My husband is very good about letting me know if a new dish is good or not and whether it should be brought back again. He really liked this one! I made it according to recipe (did use some pretty spicy salsa to kick it up a bunch) and I didn't have any problem with the biscuits being too doughy. However, as I was watching it cook I did wonder if my skillet lid having a steam vent in it to let out some of the moisture was what was helping the biscuits cook. Anyway, this is recipe going to become a staple in my kitchen. Without the biscuits and a little more tweaking it could be a super chili recipe for this winter.

Delicious! I wasn't sure about this. It is one of those that doesn't look as good as it tastes. I made some Spanish rice with it & hoped for the best. Anyway, my husband, two sons, and I all absolutely loved it. And it made enough that we had a few leftovers for me & my husband to have at lunch the next day. My son said it tastes like taco rice biscuits - exactly. Very, very good!
