I put the everything in the crockpot at the same time, except for the
rice. Turn on high for 4 hours, then on low for 6 hours.  During the
last 1 1/2 hour,put in the rice.  The final ingre-dient is about 1/2
cup of white wine. You can add this whenever.  It is optional, of
course. My husband really likes it spicy so he adds 1/8 tsp. red
pepper.  Enjoy! Mary Mann from Dallas
