- ½ cup buffalo sauce I used Frank's RedHot
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder

- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ cup crumbled blue cheese

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray a 9x13-inch baking pan with nonstick spray. Set aside.
- Slice the peppers in half lengthwise. Remove the seeds and core. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, stir the cream cheese until smooth. Add the hot sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Whisk to thoroughly combine.
- Stir in the blue cheese and onions. Add the chicken and mix well.
- Fill each bell pepper half with the creamy chicken mixture. Place into the prepared pan. Top each stuffed pepper with a slice of provolone cheese.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and has started to brown on top. Serve with freshly chopped green onions and a drizzle of hot sauce.

Notes
- Storage: Store stuffed peppers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- To make ahead: Follow the step-by-step instructions up to the baking part. If you want to make them ahead of time, keep these stuffed peppers topped with cheese in the baking dish wrapped tight with plastic wrap. Place them in the fridge, where they'll stay fresh for about 24 hours until you're ready to bake them. Then, follow the instructions as listed.
