This recipe came to me when I was looking at ingredients in my refrigerator that needed to be used up before spoiling.

Any kind of rice will work but I think the nuttiness of the pilaf adds a little something extra to this dish. Also, if you are not a fan of asparagus, you can substitute any grilled veggie of your choice.

ENJOY!
