Ah, Buffalo chicken; it's an American tradition at this point, as big a part of our national cuisine as apple pie. (More so… when's the last time you had apple pie? And when's the last time you had Buffalo wings? Thought so.) We've changed it up a bit here, stuffing peppers to the brim with the unmistakable spice and tang (with a hint of ranch for good measure), then topped with a blue cheese cream for some funky cooldown. Raise the flag; these Buffalo beauties are red, white, and blue delicious. Tip: To remove the core of a tomato, carefully making a circle with your knife around the stem, then remove circle.

Place poblanos on prepared baking sheet, cut side down. Drizzle with 1 tsp. olive oil. Roast in hot oven until poblanos are tender, but not completely cooked, 10-12 minutes.Don't worry if poblanos char a bit, char will only add flavor.While poblanos roast, prepare ingredients. -

Trim and thinly slice green onions on an angle.Pat chicken breasts dry and, on a separate cutting board, cut into 1" dice.Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.
