Ingredients
- 4 large bell peppers
- 2 cups (shredded) cooked chicken breast
- 8 ounces (softened) cream cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes. Lightly brush the outside of the peppers with olive oil and set them aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, sour cream, 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella, 3/4 cup shredded cheddar, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
Step 4
Stuff each bell pepper with the creamy chicken mixture, pressing it down gently to fill the cavity completely.
Step 5
Place the stuffed bell peppers upright in a baking dish. Cover the dish with aluminum foil to prevent the tops from over-browning.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Step 7
Remove the dish from the oven and carefully take off the foil. Sprinkle the remaining shredded mozzarella and cheddar evenly over the tops of the stuffed peppers.
Step 8
Return the dish to the oven and bake uncovered for an additional 5–7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 9
Garnish the stuffed peppers with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm.
