Chicken Bacon Ranch Stuffed Peppers
My family is fond of chicken recipes, so I always try to make different recipes to surprise them. Last weekend, I made this Chicken Bacon Ranch Stuffed Peppers and let me tell you, they're great! It took me less than an hour before I was able to serve it as an afternoon snack.
Ingredients
- 4 colored bell peppers
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
- 8 oz softened cream cheese
- 1 packet dry ranch dressing
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese , divided
- 8 slices cooked bacon , crumbled
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, ranch packet, half the cheddar cheese, bacon and mix until combined. A stand mixer is great for this.
- Wash the peppers, cut the tops off, and remove the seeds and ribs from the inside of the pepper. Stuff each pepper with about 1 cup of the chicken mixture.
- Place the peppers in a baking dish. Top the peppers with the remainder of the cheese.
- Bake for 35-45 minutes or until the peppers are tender.
- Garnish with additional bacon if desired. Serve hot.
