Amateur chefs compete in a series of cooking challenges overseen by a panel of accomplished chefs. Each week they have to survive elimination and become a culinary master, earning the title of MasterChef.
As a new series begins under the watchful eye of Gordon Ramsay, it's an audition battle with eight pairs of home cooks going head-to-head fighting to win white aprons.
The remaining eight pairs of home cooks go head-to-head in the audition battle for a chance to win the legendary white aprons.
The duos who failed to get white aprons in the auditions get a surprise second chance! They must convince the judges by making not one, but three identical, restaurant-worthy dishes.
The Top 12 duos must impress the judges with their finest dinner party dish. At the end of the evening, the couple with the worst dish will be the first to leave the MasterChef kitchen.
The duos receive two boxes - with sweet and spicy contents - and each pair of cooks must combine the two boxes of ingredients to make a harmonious, MasterChef-worthy dish.
The Top 10 duos, in a stunning pier-side setting, are tasked with feeding over 100 local fishermen and women, and the worst performing team faces the dreaded Pressure Test.
The five duos on the losing team from the previous round face the first pressure test of the season: a dessert Mystery Box challenge.
It's time for the dreaded Recipe Telephone Challenge as each duo is split up and one teammate begins cooking, but the second teammate must complete the dish.
The Top 8 duos face another intimidating team challenge: a VIP dining experience, but with a twist - they must prepare dishes aboard a moving steam train.
The four duos from the last losing team fight for survival in a new Pressure Test: they must bid for their ingredients, but must give up time instead of money to get what they require.
The contestants must master one of the toughest desserts in the world - the beloved macaron.
The Top 6 duos feel the burn when they are split into two teams, to serve a garden full of BBQ aficionados.
It's the final Pressure Test of the season, and each duo is challenged to create a three-course meal that replicates one dish from each judge's restaurant.
The Top 5 duos face a MasterChef rite of passage - The Wall. Both cooks in each duo must make the same dish while separated by a giant wall, and can only communicate by shouting over it.
With a place in the Grand Finale on the line, the Top 4 duos must not only make one of Gordon's dishes at the same speed as he makes it, but also do it while taking turns cooking.
In lead up to the finale, MasterChef celebrates the highs and lows of Series 15 with a compilation of clip highlights and the finalists are showcased.
The Top 3 duos face their last night of cooking in the MasterChef kitchen for the Grand Finale. With an audience of friends and family, the duos must perform their very best as a pair.
Across a three-course menu, the finalists must ensure that every plate is up to exacting Michelin star standards, for them to take home the first ever title of 'America's MasterChef'.
