In addition to the chicken recipe, they will be preparing five other dishes in two hours, each recipe with a cutesy name: man trouble mojitos, get skinny dip, I hang out with chefs watermelon & tomato salad, I'm so here for you eggplant parmesan, and you rock cupcakes. As they are making the chicken dish, they are expecting a marriage proposal from their guest taster, the suave Fabio Viviani, most famous for his appearance as a fan favorite contestant on Top Chef (2006). Chef Fabio may have some say in the matter, especially depending on his assessment of the chicken.
