The Kardashians’ former chef has revealed what Kim’s go-to meal is – and the brunette beauty’s cheat dish is something that you would never expect.
Jesse Henderson worked for the Kardashian clan in 2021 through 2022, having cooked a series of delicious meals for Kylie Jenner, 26, and the 43-year-old SKIMS founder.
After having curated a slew of drool-worthy bites for Kylie’s Nightmare On Elm Street-themed family meal to celebrate her holiday makeup launch in 2021, the 34-year-old culinary expert then created mouth-watering spreads for all of their relatives before taking his talents to the beach as he jetted off to Dominican Republic with Kim as her personal chef.
While there, Jesse – who previously had fans swooning over his appearance on The Kardashians show – learned all there was to know about Kim’s surprising diet and what meal he always had to have on hand.
Now, speaking exclusively to DailyMail.com, the chef, who is now focusing on his own reality cooking show, has detailed the various dishes that left Kim begging for more.
