There’s a shadow over the latest season of the entertaining cooking competition for kitchen klutzes, filmed before the tragic passing of celebrity chef Anne Burrell, whose death June 17 at 55 was recently ruled a suicide. Her boisterous personality will be missed, and was never better showcased than on this series, where she and cohost Gabe Bertaccini hope to boost the culinary confidence of contestants who, this season, have made their mark as performers but bomb when it comes to meal preparation. In the opener, the recruits display their signature dishes, then are challenged to recreate the top chefs’ “winner winner chicken dinner.”
