Sunday night, Henderson will be a contestant on “Chopped,” the Food Network game show on which chefs must take three to five weird, totally unrelated “mystery ingredients” and combine them into one creative, tasty dish. The basket might contain, say, suckling goat, broccoli, farro and cheddar-filled pretzels.
