FOX is headed back to the kitchen with world renowned chef and perfectionist Gordon Ramsay for a second season of the hit reality television show Hell’s Kitchen – kicking off at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT, on Monday, June 12th.

A former pro-soccer-player-turned-Michelin-starred-chef, Ramsay is equally famous for his temper as for his culinary creations. He has conquered London's haute cuisine scene, and is now coming back to America to discover the next great chef.

Ramsay will put the heat to 12 new contestant chefs. The group will endure his unique style of training with the hopes of winning the title of Executive Chef of a luxurious fine-dining restaurant at the brand-new Red Rock Casino Resort Spa in Las Vegas.

Along with the title, the winner will receive a financial interest in the restaurant and get to take part in its overall design. Each week will see Ramsay testing the contestants to see who has what it takes to make a success of their own restaurant.
