Yes, Chef!, What'S In The Box?

An exhilarating season premiere. The 12 chefs work in teams to create a four-course menu for judges José Andrés and Martha Stewart.

Each team must prepare five appetizers, one at a time, to go with the roast before her chicken is ready to serve. Timing is key in this challenge and the chefs need to trust each other to succeed.

Egos are tested in the kitchen when José and Martha present the chefs with mystery boxes labelled 1 to 5 that will challenge their skills and confidence. Martha and José offer the captains a risky choice.

The chefs are used to being leaders in their own kitchens, critiquing their team's work, and deciding what goes on the menu, but in today's challenge the tables are turned.

The chefs sit down for a family-style dinner and taste and judge each other's food alongside José and Martha. The decision of who enters the cook-off is fully in the chefs' hands.

The chefs are forced to come up with their best sweet dish to help temper the visitors who are coming back and looking for revenge, and Martha and José are judging blind.

The chefs are asked to create a cohesive three-course menu and prepare any dishes they want for a room full of diners. They'll need to win head-to-head culinary battles to acquire ingredients.
