Grill
Preheat an oiled grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place on the hot grill. Discard the marinade. Cover the chicken and grill, turning frequently, until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 20 minutes. Chicken is done when a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part reaches 170°F. Grill onions, turning once, until tender and charred, about 8 minutes.
