Hell’s Kitchen Season 22 episode 3: An emotional American Dream moment, clip

Celebrating the American Dream ideal kicked off this Hell’s Kitchen season. While success can be linked to that concept, becoming an American citizen is a dream for many. In Hell’s Kitchen Season 22 episode 3 clip, Claudia explains why this brunch challenge means so much to her.

The pressures of Hell’s Kitchen often create emotional moments. Beyond the pure joy of opening the door to a position within the Gordon Ramsay empire, each challenge, punishment, and dinner service puts pressure on the chefs. While there should be no crying in the kitchen, emotional reactions are part of the process.

In Hell’s Kitchen Season 22 episode 3, “Citizens Of HK,” another display of the American Dream has a big impact on the chefs. According to FOX, the episode contains the following:

"The contestants serve an All-American brunch to new American citizens. Disaster strikes when raw chicken and cold steak are served but one team reigns supreme and is rewarded with a swanky Hollywood rooftop pool party while the losing team will pick-up pieces of confetti one by one. Both teams feel the pressure serving celebrities like Victor Cruz, Bobby Berk, Alaska, and Liam Pace and one team is not able to turn it around in the all-new “Citizens of Hell’s Kitchen” episode of Hell’s Kitchen airing Thursday, October 12 (8:00 PM – 9:00 PM) on FOX."

While many people are born into citizenship, becoming an American citizen can be a meaningful moment for many people. One of the Hell’s Kitchen Season 22 chefs, Claudia, understands that American Dream ideal.

In this exclusive clip provided to FoodSided, Claudia explains why this moment is meaningful to her.

Preparing an All-American brunch for these special guests might have as much pressure as a dinner service with popular celebrities. The emotional factor, especially for Claudia, can either make chefs shine or can see them flounder. Hopefully, a positive impact happens in the opening cook.

Looking back at last week’s first dinner service, the result was not good for either the Red or the Blue team. The amount of raw proteins presented to the pass is something that would be expected from novice chefs. For all these chefs, the simple mistakes should not be happening. It made sense that both kitchens were shut down.

In addition, neither kitchen seemed to have a leader emerge within the teams. Bickering took over and the cracks showed. Hopefully, one or two chefs can step up and guide the brigade to a successful service.
