Two Michelin Star chefs have transformed a simple McDonald's meal into a fancy, gourmet dish – leaving TikTok users in disbelief.

Content creator Danny Kim, 26, from Maryland, US, challenged former Michelin Star chefs Kiran Saund and John Synder to create a gourmet dish using McDonald's fast food.

Handing the chef couple a bag of McDonald's, Danny asks him to turn his take-out into a luxe dinner.

The chefs explain they will make hunters-style chicken and potato croquettes.

They add the french fries to a hot pan with garlic, shallots, mirepoix, sage, thyme, flour, roasted chicken sauce, and milk.

They then put the paste-like texture onto a tray and put it into the fridge to sit for five minutes.

After that, they throw pickles, shallots, spinach and vinegar into a pan and let it sit to wilt into a relish.

Then, the sausage mixture is put together, using pork, thyme, sage, shallots, garlic and roasted chicken sauce, which is mixed together and left to set in the fridge.

After popping it into the fridge, one of the chefs grabs the croquette mixture from earlier and forms it into balls before putting them into the freezer to set.

Next, they create the mirepoix, using carrots, onions and celery, which they fry in a pan.

Going back to the spinach relish, which has now wilted down, the chefs add pecans, and blends the mix into a sauce, before putting it into a piping bag.

Reaching back for the McDonald's, they use one of the crispy chicken breasts from a sandwich and chop it into small pieces, adding it to the mirepoix.

One chef then pops the buns into the oven to toast before going back to the pan where he adds stock and chicken sauce.

He then takes the buns out of the oven and rips them up, blends them and pops the fine crumb into the sausage mix from the fridge.

They use pastry for the hunter’s chicken, rolling it out and adding the sausage and crispy chicken on top so that it is surrounded by sausage meat.

The chef makes sure the chicken and sausage layers are fully encased in the pastry before cutting a hole in the top, brushing it with egg and scoring it.

He then puts the hunter’s chicken in the fridge, to rest, while returning back to the mirepoix mix and straining it into a gravy.

The croquette balls are then made by dipping them in flour, egg, and breadcrumbs, followed by frying them in hot oil until they're golden brown.

He takes out the hunter’s chicken from the fridge, bakes it, and then fills the top hole of the chicken with the spinach relish.

The chef plates up the meal by chopping the hunter’s chicken in half, making a spinach relish ring, filling it with the gravy and a potato croquette, and finishing it off with edible flowers.

One chef says: "Alright, so we just turned your McDonald's into a hunter’s-style chicken with a potato croquette and fried chicken sauce."

Danny and the chefs dig in, giving it two thumbs up and a 10/10.

One fan said: "Idk what he just made but it looks good and I want it!" [sic]

"That looks bussin," another user agreed. [sic]

Someone else commented: "Oh wow, this looks like the best one yet."

"This looks scrumdiddlyumptious!! y’all are AMAZING!!!" agreed another fan. [sic]

Another said: "This might be the best one yet! Visually and as I look I feel like I can taste it."

However, some viewers believe that the chef used way too much of his own ingredients.

One person said: "He barely even used the McDonald’s stuff."

"When’s the McDonald’s part?", another user commented.

Someone else said: "Think next time should only USE the stuff from the restaurant, would be lit."

"I think I rather just have McDonald’s thanks though," said another user.
