  5. Add the pepperoncini peppers and sprinkle with a little salt and pepper to taste.

For alternative proteins, turkey sausage can be a great Halal-friendly option. If you're pressed for time, cooking on high for 3-4 hours will still give you great results without sacrificing flavor. Avoid overloading your cooker for best results.
