Run code after returning data

Question

I have a web api like this:

public async Task<IHttpActionResult> PostTest(Model model)
{
    db.UserOrders.Add(model);
    await db.SaveChangesAsync();
    await PushUtils.SendPush("title" , "message"); // heavy task
    return Ok();
}

In this method the user has to wait until the heavy task is executed.
Is there any way to execute this task after returning value to the user?

I Used Hangfire :

public async Task<IHttpActionResult> PostTest(Model model)
{
    db.UserOrders.Add(model);
    await db.SaveChangesAsync();

    BackgroundJob.Schedule(
    () => PushUtils.SendPush("title" , "message"),
    TimeSpan.FromSeconds(7));

    return Ok();
}
