Guy Fieri's going on an international tour of some feast-worthy Christmas dishes. To start things off with some holiday spirits, Chef Aarti Sequeira mixes up a much-loved Mumbai Manhattan and takes aim at Alexander the Great's Lamb Chops. Chef Justin Warner joins the holiday table with his Japan-Inspired Fried Chicken and makes us yearn for a European Christmas with mouth-watering Mini Stollen. Jonathan Waxman takes us around the world with his Taiwanese-Inspired Lobster and Water Chestnut Dumplings before serving a feast fit for a king with his Crown Rack of Lamb with Spiced Rice Pilaf.
Guy Fieri's getting streetwise with international street food. Chef Nyesha Arrington is first to present with a Piri Piri Piña before firing up her Fried Chicken with Gochujang Glaze and Kimchi Collard Slaw, followed by Brown Butter Crêpes. Chef Nate Appleman is representing the West Coast with his take on an LA Street Dog and channeling his inner Argentinian with Chimichurri Skirt Steak with Fries. Chef Shota Nakajima shares how to make Kushiyaki and yummy Yakisoba. Chef Jet Tila vies for best dish with Vietnamese Shrimp Spring Rolls and keeps Guy longing for Lemongrass Pork Chop over Broken Rice.
The Kitchen is making a week's worth of healthy, weeknight-friendly recipes, starting with Jeff Mauro's Baked Coconut Chicken with Spicy Mango Dip and Geoffrey Zakarian's Root Vegetable Lentil Stew. Chef Michael Symon joins the hosts to make his Baked Cod Shakshuka-Style, and the hosts pass the Asian Barbecue Bowl with Brown Rice Noodles piled high with pork marinated with ginger and pear, Quick Pickle Asian Slaw and Miso Carrot Ginger Dressing. Then Katie Lee makes Fusilli with Kale and Walnut Pesto, and registered dietitian and nutritionist Maya Feller drops by to walk through popular meal plans and share healthy breakfast options.
The Kitchen shares family-style, big batch recipes that are perfect for meal prep or family dinners! Jeff Mauro starts with his Escarole, Sausage, Peppers and Beans Cheat Sheet on the grill. Then, Geoffrey Zakarian makes a big batch of his Ratatouille, and Katie Lee shows an easy way to cook rice for a crowd. Sunny Anderson prepares her Big Easy Chicken and Andouille File Gumbo that will feed the whole family, and Alex Guarnaschelli's Pork Chops Pizzaiola can turn into multiple meals. Plus, mixologist and "Drinking Coach" Tiffanie Barriere joins the hosts to share her Grass Roots Cocktail.
The Kitchen hosts are sharing their favorite regional casseroles, bakes and skillets. Alex Guarnaschelli kicks things off with her New York-inspired Cheesy Spinach Manicotti with Lemon. Then Katie Lee Biegel shares one of her Southern childhood favorites, Chili Cornbread Skillet. Jeff Mauro cooks up a Midwestern-style Chicken, Mushroom and Wild Rice Casserole, and Sunny Anderson transforms a New Jersey deli sub with her Easy Meatball Sub Casserole with Roasted Broccoli. Geoffrey Zakarian makes a decadent dessert of Coconut Allspice Corn Pudding, and the hosts share their favorite fresh sides to pair with their recipes.
This trip, Guy's got the goods on stick-to-your-ribs knockouts from the ski slopes to the sea. In Miami, Fla., the law student who switched out his suit for a chef coat is killing it with all kinds of comfort food like spicy oxtail and big ragu. In Park City, Utah, the local boy serving low brow gourmet grub like the signature chivito club and chicken bowl with rice, and the mom and pop ski lodge keepin' the snow bunnies fed on flavorful favorites like pork osso buco, vegetarian mushroom stroganoff and crispy pork belly.
Sandra is bringing the taste of the tropics right to her sister’s kitchen for an exotic and easy meal. Chicken with Peanut Curry Sauce on a bed of coconut rice will get your taste buds dancing. Then, sea scallops get a tangy makeover, when marinated in a pina colada mix and paired with pineapple. Sandra also turns an everyday cookie mix into an exotic Macadamia Coconut Cookie that’s easy as 1,2,3. Finally, it’s Sandra’s Lime in the Coconut cocktail--you’ll want to drink all up!
