    Kelley Simmons Kelley’s Tips

    Before You Get Started

    • Use leftover chicken. Rotisserie chicken is a huge time saver, and it works great in this recipe! Just shred and mix it in with the other ingredients!
    • Make it ahead. Assemble the peppers up to a day in advance, store them in the fridge, and pop them in the oven when you’re ready to eat.
    • Change out the cheese. Swap the cheddar for mozzarella, pepper jack, or blue cheese for a different flavor.

    Ingredients

    • Buffalo Sauce – Adds a bold, tangy heat that’s key for buffalo chicken recipes. Drizzle it on top of the peppers at the end for a bit of extra flavor and heat!
    • Cream Cheese – Adds creaminess and binds the filling together.
    • Shredded Chicken – A hearty protein that soaks up all the flavor! I love using rotisserie chicken to save time.
    • Sour Cream – Balances the heat of the buffalo sauce with a cool, tangy flavor.
    • Bell Peppers – The perfect sweet and crunchy veggie for stuffing with buffalo chicken.
    • Seasonings – Garlic powder, onion powder, and dried dill.
    • Sharp Cheddar Cheese – Melted on top to create an ooey, gooey topping.
    • Green Onions – Adds a fresh, mild onion flavor and a pop of color.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I freeze stuffed peppers?

    Absolutely! Let the peppers cool completely, wrap each stuffed pepper tightly in plastic wrap, and store in a freezer bag for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge before reheating.

    Do I need to cook the peppers before stuffing?

    No, since they’ll soften while they’re baking. But if you like your peppers to be extra tender, you can certainly pre-bake them for 5–7 minutes before adding the filling.
