Ingredients
  

For the Peppers
  • 4 medium bell peppers Choose a mix of colors for a vibrant presentation.
For the Filling
  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken Leftover rotisserie chicken works great here.
  • 1 cup Alfredo sauce A store-bought sauce saves time, but homemade adds even more flavor.
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese Use fresh mozzarella for a creamier texture.
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese This adds a salty tang that pairs perfectly with the filling.
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning A great herb blend that elevates the flavor profile.
  • 1 tsp garlic powder For that extra hint of depth and aroma.
  • Salt and pepper to taste Adjust these to enhance the overall flavor.

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking dish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking dish by coating it with nonstick spray.
  2. Slice the tops off the bell peppers and carefully remove the seeds.
  3. Mix together the shredded chicken, Alfredo sauce, half of the mozzarella, and Parmesan cheeses, along with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  4. Fill each bell pepper generously with the cheesy chicken mixture and place them upright in the prepared baking dish.
  5. Top each stuffed pepper with the remaining cheeses.
  6. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
