INGREDIENTS

4 green bell peppers sliced in half length-wise
2 cups cooked shredded chicken
8 ounces cream cheese softened
1/2 cup grated cheddar divided
1/4 cup grated mozzarella
1/3 cup Frank’s Red Hot Sauce
1 tablespoon ranch seasoning mix
1 tablespoon chives
Ranch or blue cheese dressing for serving

INSTRUCTIONS

Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees.
Grab the halves of the peppers and place them in a 9×13 baking dish and set this aside, you’ll come back to it later.
Grab and mix the chicken, cream cheese, 1/4 cup of cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, hot sauce, and ranch. Mix it all together in a bowl and stir it until it combines into one mixture.
Take a spoonful of the chicken mixture you just made and put it into the peppers evenly.
Now with the baking dish from earlier, add a tablespoon of water to the bottom and cover it tightly with some foil.
Bake the peppers in the oven for 25 minutes or until you get the peppers to the texture that you prefer.
Remove the foil and sprinkle the cheddar cheese you have left. Set the oven to the broil setting and broil it for 1 minute to melt the cheese.
Finish it off by drizzling the ranch or blue cheese dressing on top if you’d like (but we think it’s a must)!
