Usha Nadkarni impresses judges with Chicken Tikka dish

In the latest episode of Celebrity MasterChef, Usha Nadkarni impressed the judges with her Chicken Tikka during redemption week. She used a Japanese spice called Shichimi Togarashi to give her dish a unique flavor. Chef Ranveer supported her throughout the cooking process. The episode featured an auction challenge where celebrities had to bid for their dishes and lost 10 to 30 minutes of cooking time in the process. Usha had 55 minutes to prepare her Chicken Tikka, which she started by marinating the chicken. Chef Ranveer and Farah Khan visited her station and asked her about her preparation. They expressed concerns over the cooking time and the thickness of her chicken pieces. Usha reassured them that her chicken was boneless this time. Under pressure, she made necessary adjustments to ensure proper cooking. As they plated the dish, both Chef Ranveer and Chef Kunal offered tips for better presentation. When it was time for Usha to present her dish, she confidently spoke about her spice mix. The judges praised her for her international approach, calling the chicken perfectly cooked and the sauce outstanding. Chef Kunal described her dish as strong and delicious. In a touching moment, both Chef Ranveer and Chef Kunal bowed down to Usha for her sauce, leaving her visibly emotional at the recognition.
