Preheat your oven to 400˚F (200˚C).
In your oven-safe skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat.
Add the scallions and cook for about 2 minutes, until softened and fragrant.
Stir in the BBQ sauce and bring to a simmer. Let it simmer for a minute or two, allowing the flavors to meld.
Add the shredded chicken to the skillet and stir to coat it evenly in the sauce.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the chicken mixture.
Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
