Ingredients
  

4 medium zucchinis

1 lb (450g) cooked chicken, shredded

1/2 cup buffalo sauce (adjust to taste)

1/4 cup cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/4 cup blue cheese crumbles (optional)

1/4 cup diced green onions

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil for drizzling

Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Wash the zucchinis and slice them in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and some of the flesh using a spoon to create a boat shape.

      Brush the zucchini halves with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place them cut side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

        In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, cream cheese, garlic powder, and half of the cheddar cheese. Mix until well combined.

          Fill each zucchini boat generously with the buffalo chicken mixture, packing it in for an even layer.

            Top each boat with the remaining cheddar cheese and blue cheese crumbles if using.

              Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the zucchinis are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

                Remove from the oven and sprinkle with diced green onions and fresh parsley for garnish before serving.
