2 green onions (finely chopped)

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
Slice the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook chicken until no longer pink (about 7-8 minutes per side). Shred once cooled.
In a bowl, mix shredded chicken with buffalo sauce, cream cheese, garlic powder, green onions, and half of the cheddar cheese until well combined.
