We’ve watched Selena Gomez prepare many delicious dishes since launching her cooking show Selena + Chef, and her next one will be the most festive one yet. Her Selena + Chef: Home for the Holidays is coming our way this November, and it will mark the start of her collaboration with Food Network.

Selena + Chef launched as a part of HBO Max’s original programming during the pandemic, but there has been a lot of uncertainty surrounding its future ever since Gomez announced she’s plotting two shows with Food Network earlier this year. We finally know what she’s been cooking up, and it turns out she’s bringing Selena + Chef to a brand-new network for the holidays.

Each episode of Gomez’s cooking show saw her join forces with a different professional chef, and her holiday special will embrace the same concept. Eric Adjepong, Alex Guarnaschelli, Michael Symon, and Claudette Zepeda will join her in the four-episode series, set to launch on November 30.

Guarnaschelli will help Gomez put a twist on roast beef and mashed potatoes, Symon will show her how to prepare a surf-and-turf Christmas meal with steak and lobster, Zepeda will offer her tips for making delicious Mexican feast featuring tamales, while Adjepong will be by the Gomez’s side while she puts together the New Year brunch that includes shrimp, banana grits, and malva pudding.
