Asparagus Asian Style

The tastiest seasonal product for me is the asparagus. Maybe because it is only available in spring and for me the first asparagus equals the beginning of spring. Of course we all know the classic versions, but I also like to wok my asparagus. Delicious with other vegetables or in salads: super easy and quick. Now I have an Asian version for you, with chicken thighs. For a Vegetarian version you can replace the chicken with diced zucchini or florets of broccoli for example.
