1. Place all ingredients in a medium sized bowl except the pomegranate seeds and whisk together. Splash the ingredients over the prepared salad, toss and serve on individual plates. Sprinkle a few pomegranate seeds over the top for a festive look.

Press out as much air as possible and seal. Massage the mixture into to item in the baggie and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes up to several hours. When cooking use any remaining liquid in the baggie for basting.
