In the Fans' Hands

Episode | From: Chopped

It's viewers' choice time again! The chefs are scared when they find out that the ingredients for their battle were chosen by the fans, via social media. The competitors are trepidatious when they see the alarming sandwich in the first basket. In round two, gummy candies are no big deal compared to a meaty shocker, and a gag-inducing soda and a veggie-licious cake are two of the frightening finds in the dessert basket. Through all this battle's ups and downs, one thing is certain: the winner of the $10,000 will have to work extremely hard for it.

Ree Drummond is shaking up Italian classics and sharing a taste of the dolce vita, frontier-style, with favorites from the past.

Her Roasted Vegetable Panzanella is a new take on traditional panzanella salad with roasted vegetables, mozzarella and Italian cornbread croutons. Ree also shares quick tricks in her all-in-one Italian Chicken Sheet Pan Supper, and she stocks the freezer with layered Loaf Pan Lasagnas perfectly portioned for two.
