Cooking-loving kids will light up Fox once again when “Masterchef Junior” returns for its eighth season this March — and TheWrap has your first look at a new promo for the show.
In the sneak peek (see below), chef Gordon Ramsay puts the kids through their paces in the kitchen as they try new competition challenges. The show features kids between 8 and 13, who will show their passion for food as they cook a meal for diners at an historical renaissance fair. There’s also a visit to a monster truck rally, and there will be a WWE-themed episode.
Joining Ramsay are chef Aarón Sánchez and new judge, author Daphne Oz. Ramsay’s daughter, Tilly Ramsay, will also return for Season 8 in a donut challenge
In addition to the “Masterchef Junior” trophy, the winner will take home a $100,000 prize.
