  • 4 medium bell peppers (red, yellow, or orange)
  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (preferably rotisserie)
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce (sugar-free preferred)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for drizzling)
  • optional diced celery
  • optional green onions
  • optional additional spices (like garlic powder or smoked paprika)

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Wash the bell peppers, cut off the tops, and scoop out seeds and membranes.
  3. In a bowl, combine shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, and any desired spices or additional ingredients.
  4. Stuff each bell pepper with the buffalo chicken mixture, packing it in tightly.
  5. Drizzle the tops of the stuffed peppers with olive oil and, if desired, sprinkle with extra cheese.
  6. Place the stuffed peppers upright in a baking dish.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the peppers are tender and the filling is heated through.
  8. If the tops start browning too quickly, loosely cover with foil.

Notes

Feel free to customize the filling with your favorite ingredients. Diced celery adds crunch, while extra cheese is always a win!
Consider meal prepping and freezing the stuffed peppers before baking. They can be stored for several weeks and baked fresh when needed.
For a lower spicy flavor, mix in cream cheese or sour cream with the filling.
These peppers are versatile and can be served with sides like cauliflower rice or a fresh green salad.
Leftovers can be easily reheated in the microwave or oven. They're also delicious served cold!
