You get to pick the three mystery ingredients.
Okay.
(audience cheers) These are your bags
over here.
Shout out the numbers as you grab your bags.
Grab three of them.
Five.
Number five! Good call.
Pass it to me, let me see.
Number five!
Number five is pre-packaged pudding!
Pudding snacks, okay!
What else do you want?
Number nine.
Take a look.
Nine, okay.
Good number. What'd you get?
Yeah, one of my favorites, wasabi peas!
(audience cheers)
I love wasabi peas.
Me too, wasabi peas.
Especially in the spring when they're in season.
(Rachael laughs)
Pick one more!
Number six, that's heavy.
I'm really excited.
What do we got?
Oh, it's heavy, it's a heavy one.
Chocolate milk!
Oh my gosh, okay.
All right, let's go start over here.
Okay, Amanda, you're cooking with me now.
So Amanda, to be clear, just first off
sous chef means you do all the work, okay?
And we will pay you nothing!
We have a small pantry of ingredients.
I wanna use the peas, I think that's
the most inspiring right now.
Yeah, I think it's delicious.
What are you gonna do with them?
Let's see, there's some tortillas.
While I'm eating them with Amanda.
There's tortillas and some cheese.
And I think we're gonna make wasabi pea quesadillas!
(audience cheers)
Have you had a quesadilla before?
I have.
Okay, awesome, so this is what we're gonna do.
There's that pan on the stove and again,
since you're the sous chef, what I want you to do
is you're gonna griddle these quesadillas.
I think I can handle that.
So you're going to throw, let's just do one,
we can do half of one, just throw it right there
in that pan with a little bit of olive oil.
So it'll cook a little bit and brown.
I'm eating your wasabi peas, Richard.
Yeah, go for it, I mean they're snackable.
You can eat some, the front row you can have some too.
All right, and then we have some jack cheese,
you're gonna cook that.
Perfect, look at that.
You're crushing the game over here, Amanda.
(audience cheers)
Grab some broccoli over there, grab some broccoli.
Broccoli, it's green!
Yeah, let's grab some broccoli.
This isn't burning, Amanda.
That's just a smell that's confusing us.
It's definitely not burning.
Let's go, you got some broccoli?
There you go.
Are we burning the quesadilla?
Oh, show them!
Oh my gosh, guys, this is all love.
That's flavor, that's flavor!
(audience cheers)
Have you not been to a modern restaurant recently?
Everything is charred!
Okay, hold on, hold on.
Oh God, Richard.
We gotta cook another quesadilla Amanda.
(audience laughs)
Rachael wants another one.
All right, let's go, let's get some cheese in that one.
I think the entire audience wants another one, Richard.
(audience laughs)
Let's walk through what you got going on here.
Where are we at?
We're at nine, and Amanda's finishing up.
She's got it, the 10th one!
Whoa, 10!
(audience cheers)
All right, tell us what you guys made.
Okay, Amanda is responsible for all of this.
Amanda, did you learn anything from working
with our Top Chef Richard?
I did, I learned how to cook under pressure.
(Rachael laughs)
Amanda had the best ideas, quite honestly.
Okay, what do we got?
So we have a carrot hot dog
with ketchup that we made. I love that.
We used those pickles.
We, over here we have chocolate milk french toast
with the vanilla pudding as a garnish for it.
Oh, clever!
We have a wasabi pea-crusted chicken ramen burger
that we made over here.
We made that broccoli-topped pesto.
We have some vanilla pudding with these awesome little
toasted brioche fingers, courtesy of Amanda.
Adorable.
We have the almost burnt quesadilla.
(audience laughs)
We have wasabi pea-crusted chicken parmigiana.
Soft scrambled eggs with wasabi peas on toast.
What's up!
Nachos with wasabi peas and pickles.
Yum!
(audience cheers)
And then- Fried pickles!
In the 11th hour Amanda was like,
"you wanna fry some pickles?"
And I was like, "do you wanna be my real sous chef?"
(audience cheers)
Who doesn't love fried pickles?
Now, I have to tell you, Amanda, that was tough.
It was.
It's tough to cook with any Top Chef.
It's tough to do it for free.
And it's tough to do it on national television.
But I think that you've earned a little treat, right?
I think that you should be able to get groceries
on us for a while, how about $1000 to go shopping?
(audience cheers)
Thank you ShopRite!
