On Wednesday, June 5 at 8PM ET/PT, the finalists will compete in their first team challenge in which they'll be judged by children. The Top 19 will visit a local elementary school and be tasked with creating a healthy, balanced meal for more than 300 kids. Ramsay will then make a dish alongside the finalists using mystery box ingredients. At the end of the episode, two finalists will be eliminated.
Later this season, the finalists will prepare a hearty meal for American heroes, travel to Las Vegas for the first time in MasterChef history, cook for the cast and crew of Glee, prepare fish tacos for 101 surfers, and take control of a renowned fine dining restaurant and create a summer party menu for charity volunteers, according to Fox.
The fourth-season winner will ultimately be crowned with the title of "MasterChef" and receive a cookbook deal along with the $250,000 grand prize.
