Ingredients
  

4 large bell peppers (choose red, yellow, or green for a colorful presentation)

2 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie chicken is a convenient option)

1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce (add more or less depending on your spice preference)

1 cup cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided (3/4 cup for the filling and 1/4 cup for topping)

1/2 cup ranch dressing

1/4 cup green onions, chopped (plus additional for garnish)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Optional: celery sticks and extra ranch dressing for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking.

    Prepare the Peppers: Carefully slice the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and inner membranes, leaving them hollow. Stand the peppers upright in a baking dish, ensuring they are stable.

      Make the Filling: In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, buffalo wing sauce, softened cream cheese, 3/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, ranch dressing, and chopped green onions. Mix all the ingredients together until they are well blended and creamy. Taste the mixture and season with salt and pepper as needed.

        Stuff the Peppers: Use a spoon to generously fill each bell pepper with the buffalo chicken mixture, pressing down gently to ensure they are filled to the brim without overflowing.

          Top with Cheese: Evenly distribute the remaining 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese atop each stuffed pepper for a delicious, melted topping.

            Bake: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. After this time, remove the foil and continue to bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the peppers are tender, and the cheese is bubbly and has turned a lovely golden color.

              Garnish and Serve: Once done, take the peppers out of the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Garnish with additional chopped green onions for a fresh touch. For an extra crunchy bite, serve with celery sticks and a side of ranch dressing.

                Enjoy your irresistible and flavorful Easy Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Peppers!
