Chef John Besh and Monsignor Christopher Nalty Join Us for Around The Table Food Show

Two special guests joined us for the Friday, May 17th edition of Around The Table Food Show.

Monsignor Christopher Nalty, a priest of the Archdiocese of New Orleans, is the pastor of Good Shepherd Parish, which was formed in October 2008 by merging together three parishes: St. Stephen, St. Henry and Our Lady of Good Counsel. Msgr. Nalty studied in Rome and spent about 10 years in Italy. He loves to cook, and he is really good at it. In 2009, when Fr. Leo Patalinghug was issued a "throwdown" by Bobby Flay, Msgr. Nalty worked together with Fr. Leo to prepare Fr. Leo's famous Steak Fajitas.

On this edition of Around The Table Food Show, Msgr. Nalty shares with us his recipe for Pasta with Garlic & Oil (Aglio e Olio). I include my version of this recipe below.

Chef John Besh is a local chef, restauranteur, cookbook author, husband, father, he has a TV cooking show... Oh, and he's Catholic. ;-)
