On February 1, 2022, it was announced that the series had been renewed for a twenty-first and twenty-second season.

Eighteen chefs competed in season 21. For the third time in the show's history (following seasons one and 18), the chefs were not divided by gender at the start of the season.

Starting from the end of the third episode, the teams were divided by gender, with women on the red team and men on the blue team.
