I had to leave out the raisins because I didn't realize I was out! :(
I also threw everything in a crock pot because thats all I was able to do with the time I had today. I will update with the results.
crock pot version turned out fantastic! I will definitely make this again. I definitely will add the raisins next time because I feel like that would have been so amazing. I put salt and pepper on mine. tried it with cilantro one day and that was pretty good too.
