It's time to blow out the candles and make a wish for The Kitchen's birthday show! Katie Lee makes a special birthday meal, Porterhouse Steak with Herb Fries. Geoffrey Zakarian's Shrimp Bruschetta and Sunny Anderson's Mini Pita Pizzas are fun finger foods for any occasion. Baker Melissa Ben-Ishay creates birthday magic with a Tie-Dye Birthday Cake, and the hosts throw a Piece of Cake Party featuring Geoffrey's Sorbet Punch and Katie's DIY Donut Wall. Finally, Geoffrey shows off a new way to hand out prizes for a birthday bash with his Punch Box.

The Kitchen is serving up dishes with maximum flavor and minimum effort, starting with Katie Lee's Smothered Pork Chops and Jeff Mauro's Pomegranate Glazed Salmon. Sunny Anderson makes Lemon and Cheese Peas using only five ingredients, and the hosts open the Kitchen Helpline to answer some questions. Iron Chef Alex Guarnaschelli makes her Roasted Potato Salad, and Geoffrey Zakarian wraps things up on a sweet note with Three Ingredient No-Churn Ice Cream.
