- 4 cuts rib eye steak, 6 ounces each
- 20 pieces green asparagus

- Season the rib eye with salt and pepper and cook for about 6 minutes on each side for medium rare. Let rest for 3 minutes before slicing.
- Spoon one serving of couscous on a plate and place 5 pieces of asparagus over it. Slice the rib eye and place on top of the asparagus.
- Place 2 halves of the roasted tomatoes next to the asparagus, and spoon the tapenade over the rib eye.
