Whisk together marinade/dressing ingredients to combine. Reserve and refrigerate half of the marinade for later use as a dressing. Pour the second half of the marinade into a shallow dish; place chicken fillets in dish to marinate in refrigerator for 2 hours, if time allows.
Heat a non-stick pan, grill pan or skillet over medium heat with about 1 t. oil; sear/grill chicken fillets on both sides until golden, crispy and cooked through. (Grill in batches to prevent excess water from being released.) When chicken is done, set aside and allow to rest.
Wipe out pan with paper towel; drizzle pan with 1 t. oil; fry bacon until crispy; crumble.
Slice chicken into strips; prepare salad with Romaine leaves, tomatoes, sliced avocado, corn, onion slices and chicken.
Whisk 2 T. water into the reserved marinade/dressing; drizzle over the salad. Sprinkle bacon over the top; season with a little salt and freshly ground black pepper, if desired.
