Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until caramelized, 10-12 minutes.

Place chicken in a plastic bag or Tupperware container large enough to comfortably hold the pieces. Add onions and remaining ingredients. Seal and shake to evenly coat the chicken. Marinate for 30 minutes or overnight in the refrigerator. 

Light coals (Naf recommends natural hardwood charcoal) and bank along the sides of the grill. Arrange chicken in center of the grill (not directly above the coals). Cover and grill for 10-30 minutes, depending on the size of the pieces.

Uncover and turn chicken. Recover and cook an additional 5-15 minutes until desired internal temperature is reached.
