Nutritional values
The essential oils from chives are considered expectorant and diuretic. Not only the stalks but also its flowers are edible and have a sweet aroma due to the nectar they contain. A true metabolism activator is a capsaicin from chili peppers. The pungent substance stimulates blood circulation and digestion and can even relieve pain.
For a vegetarian version, you can simply replace the chicken breast fillet with firm tofu. Simply cut this into bite-sized cubes and prepare as described.

Preparation steps
Wash chicken, pat dry and cut into 3-4 cm pieces. Peel and finely chop the garlic. Mix both with 2 tbsp. oil, salt, pepper, lemon juice and cayenne pepper and let marinate for approx. 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, clean, wash and peel white asparagus, remove woody ends. Steam over boiling salted water for about 5 minutes, rinse with cold water and drain. Clean green asparagus, wash and peel lower thirds. Clean and wash tomatoes.
Clean, wash and finely slice the zucchini. Clean strawberries, wash and pat dry. Put meat with strawberries and zucchini on metal skewers.
Place the asparagus in a baking dish, brush with 1 tablespoon of oil, lightly salt, add the tomatoes and cook in a preheated oven at 200 °C / 400 °F for 10-12 minutes.
Meanwhile, for the dip, select herbs and flowers, wash and pat dry. Roughly chop the herbs. Mix half of them with yogurt, salt, pepper and drizzle with 1 tsp oil.
Heat remaining oil in a large frying pan and fry skewers in it all around for about 10 minutes until meat is cooked. Arrange skewers on asparagus, garnish with chive blossoms and remaining herbs. Serve with dip.
