James thanks, that did the trick. I uninstalled the newer version of eventmachine

$ sudo gem uninstall eventmachine

Select gem to uninstall:

 1. eventmachine-0.12.10

 2. eventmachine-1.0.0

 3. All versions

> 2

Successfully uninstalled eventmachine-1.0.0

# And now this works:

:~$ sudo chef-expander -n1
