Ingredients
  

  • - 4 large bell peppers halved and seeded
  • - 2 cups cooked shredded chicken

  • - 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • - 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • - 1/4 cup diced celery

  • - Ranch dressing for drizzling
  • - Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. **Preheat.** Set oven to 375°F and line a baking dish.
  2. **Mix.** Combine shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, hot sauce, half the cheddar, celery, and green onions in a bowl.
  3. **Stuff.** Pack the filling into each pepper half and place cut-side up in the dish.
  4. **Bake.** Cover with foil and bake 25 minutes. Remove foil, top with remaining cheddar, bake 10 more minutes until bubbly.

Notes

- Use rotisserie chicken to save time and add extra flavor.
- Soften cream cheese fully before mixing to avoid lumps.
- Cover with foil first to steam-soften the peppers before browning the cheese.
