Direcciones
- Start grill. Cook asparagus in boiling salted water till crisp tender, 1 to 2 min. Drain. Stir together asparagus, tomatoes, olives, cilantro, capers and pepper flakes in a large bowl. Set aside. Cook orzo according to package directions. Drain and return to pan. Stir in broth, extra virgin olive oil
- (if using), saffron and reserved vegetables. Cook, stirring occasionally till heated. (I'd transfer to a microwave casserole and heat which way).
- Spray tuna filets with extra virgin olive oil cooking spray. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Grill till desired doneness, about 3 min per side for medium - rare. Slice into thin strips.
- To serve: Spoon orzo into bottom of tagine or possibly into serving bowls and top with tuna.
