Gordon Ramsay has a new show on the menu — and its key ingredient is his epic meme co-starring Julie Chen Moonves.

The Hell's Kitchen personality and celebrity chef has revealed that he's working on a project for Fox titled Idiot Sandwich, inspired by a parody sketch he and the Big Brother host filmed for James Corden's The Late Late Show in 2015.

The clip — which has been viewed 13.6 million times to date on YouTube — features him placing two pieces of bread around Chen Moonves' face and forcing her to call herself an "idiot sandwich." Ramsay revealed to PEOPLE that it has "gone ballistic" over the years, prompting him to begin work on the upcoming series.

"Wherever I go, there's some young kid somewhere that wants to be called an 'idiot sandwich,'" he said.

The show is described as a sandwich-making competition that will carry a cash prize and anoint someone with the title of Gordon Ramsay's Idiot Sandwich, PEOPLE reports.

Representatives for Fox did not immediately respond to EW's request for comment.

Ramsay's successful Hell's Kitchen wrapped its 21st season in February, marking the notoriously contentious, Emmy-nominated cooking series' 18th year on the air following its debut in 2005.
