1
Grill the Chicken
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
2
Cook the Bacon
While the chicken is grilling, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Once done, remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel to drain excess grease.

3
Chop the Vegetables
Dice the red bell pepper and red onion into small pieces. Slice the scallions thinly, using both the white and green parts.

4
Combine Ingredients
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Shred or slice the chicken into bite-sized pieces and mix it with the cooked bacon, diced red bell pepper, and red onion.
5
Add the Sauce
Pour the Buffalo sauce over the chicken mixture and stir until everything is well coated.
6
Melt the Cheese
Transfer the mixture into a baking dish or grill-safe pan. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the top and return it to the grill for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

7
Drizzle with Ranch
Once the cheese is melted, remove the dish from the grill. Drizzle ranch dressing over the top to taste.
8
Garnish
Sprinkle the sliced scallions over the top for garnish before serving.
