This morning we were pleased to visit your homes via a trip to WBRC Fox 6 studios & cooking on Good Day Alabama. Executive Chef Richard Showers was joined in the kitchen by Marketing & Special Events Manager, Leigh Ann Callaway and Good Day Alabama News Anchor Janice Rogers. Richard demonstrated how to prepare the Greek Seafood Nachos. What an amazing dish! The Greek Seafood Nachos are house-fried wonton chips topped with a spinach cheese sauce, sautéed shrimp & crawfish, diced tomatoes, red onions, banana peppers, black olives, green onions, and freshly grated Parmesan cheese. He started out making the spinach cheese sauce, then sautéing the shrimp & crawfish. The dish was completed by topping a plate of wonton chips with the sauce, then the seafood, followed by the remaining toppings. Everyone just loved the dish. Come into Billy’s Sports Grill and try it yourself! It is available daily and is under the appetizer section of the menu. Note that you can also order the Spinach Cheese Sauce as a dip, also served with wonton chips. This item is available at all three Billy’s locations: English Village, Liberty Park, & Northport. Check out the video here or see the recipe below.
