3. Heat a grill pan or gas grill over medium to medium-high (or start a charcoal fire and let it burn until the coals are medium hot and covered with white ash). Lightly brush the onion slices with oil and season with salt. Grill the onion and the chicken until the chicken is cooked through and the onion is well-browned, 5 to 6 minutes per side.Chop the grilled onion into small pieces and put it into a bowl. Pit and peel the avocados, scooping the flesh in with the onion.
4. Add another third of the garlic marinade and coarsely mash everything together with a potato masher, large fork or the back of a spoon. Taste and season with salt, usually about 1/2 teaspoon.Put sliced romaine into a large bowl, dress with the remaining third of the marinade and toss to combine.To serve, divide between four dinner plates. Put a portion of the guacamole into the center of each plate.
5. Cut each breast into cubes and arrange over the guacamole.
6. Sprinkle with queso añejo (or its substitute) and drizzle with more dressing.MORE ON PANNA: Panna is the first-ever video cooking magazine for the iPad and iPhone.
