Ingredients
½ tbsp olive oil, plus a drizzle

1 tsp smoked paprika, plus a pinch
½-1 tbsp chipotle paste
200g long-stem broccoli
400ml hot vegetable stock
150g orzo

Stir in half the herbs and the peas, and nestle the fish into the orzo. Sprinkle over a pinch of paprika and drizzle with oil, then season. Cook for 8-10 mins until the fish is cooked and the orzo is tender. Mix the remaining herbs with the yogurt. Loosen with a little water if needed, then serve with the orzo and fish.
