Straight-talking British chef Gordon Ramsay has come a long way since he opened his first restaurant in 1998. He's turned into a bonafide A-lister, known for a plethora of restaurants and cooking-themed TV shows. He's gained Michelin Stars, written best-selling books, and built a restaurant empire. To date, Ramsay has nearly 90 restaurants around the world, and more than 30 of those are in the U.S.
Few chefs are as synonymous with their signature dish as British celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay is with his beef Wellington. With roots in both French and British cuisine, beef Wellington is a dish of tender beef filet encased in mushrooms, Parma ham, and pastry. It is also one of Ramsay's most famous dishes, appearing on the menu at most of his restaurants.
From Michelin-starred restaurants to television screens across the globe, Gordon Ramsay's culinary credentials are undisputed. The renowned chef understands better than anyone the power of good ingredients, even if they are canned beans that you keep in your pantry, overlooked all along. Sure enough, it's none other than canned chickpeas that you will find in his Moroccan chicken traybake recipe. If you thought hummus and falafel were already the best uses for canned chickpeas, this dish is proof that they can always exceed expectations.

It's certainly true that there are plenty of quick and easy recipes if you're in a rush and that plenty of frozen foods are of less-than-ideal quality.

First of all, get some ahi tuna and lightly sear it. From there, I would get a beautiful quail egg [and] lightly poach them. I'd have this amazing, beautiful, fresh tapenade spread over that wholesomely delicious Triscuit biscuit [...] with a quail egg that is runny in the middle. That would be the ultimate Triscuit niçoise for me.

“When temperatures spike in the summertime, I never want to stand over a hot stove for too long, so a 10-minute pasta with some refreshing shrimp sounded like the perfect dish.”
I will literally go to a drive-thru, In-N-Out, and I'll wind the window down, and I'll ask for a Double-Double animal style, and they recognize me and they give me lots of extras. So I just stack them, jump in the backseat, and eat them all.
