I’m new to Chef, but from what I can tell this has to do with dpkg. Any thoughts?

That’s very strange… Does the file /usr/bin/apt-extracttemplates exist on the the system?
$ dpkg -S /usr/bin/apt-extracttemplates
apt-utils: /usr/bin/apt-extracttemplates
It should be available on most systems as the apt-utils package is a dependency of ubuntu-minimal
