I would never buy anything pre-made like that, either, but for food
safety reasons.

As to the combination of flavors:
Chicken and cheddar, ok.
Chicken and asparagus, excellent.
Cheddar and asparagus, epic fail.
Chicken, cheddar, and broccoli, excellent.

Plus, if it's all cooked after the asparagus is stuffed inside the
chicken, the ends of the asparagus would be overcooked before
the chicken was done through.
