Instructions
Creating Greek Yogurt Chicken Salad Stuffed Peppers is a breeze. Just follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Peppers: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the tops off the bell peppers and remove the seeds and membranes.
2. Make the Chicken Salad: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, celery, red onion, parsley, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
3. Stuff the Peppers: Spoon the chicken salad mixture into each bell pepper, packing it down gently to fill them completely.
4. Bake (Optional): Place the stuffed peppers upright in a baking dish. If you prefer them warm, bake for about 15 minutes until the peppers are tender. If you enjoy them cold, you can skip this step.
5. Cool and Serve: Allow the stuffed peppers to cool for a few minutes before serving. This also helps the flavors meld together.
These straightforward steps will guide you in creating a dish that’s not only healthy but also incredibly satisfying.
