Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 400 grams paneer cubed
  • 1 cup bell pepper cut into squares
  • 1 cup red onion cut into squares
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 8-10 pieces wooden skewers soaked in water

Tandoori Marinade

  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons tandoori masala
  • 1 teaspoon ginger paste
  • 1 teaspoon garlic paste
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon coriander powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. 1 In a large bowl, combine plain yogurt, tandoori masala, ginger paste, garlic paste, turmeric, cumin, coriander, red chili powder, and salt to create the marinade.
  2. 2 Add cubed paneer, bell peppers, and red onions to the marinade. Toss well to coat all pieces evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. 3 Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  4. 4 Thread the marinated paneer, bell pepper, and onion alternately onto the soaked wooden skewers.
  5. 5 Brush the skewers with vegetable oil to prevent sticking on the grill.
  6. 6 Grill the skewers for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the paneer is lightly charred and cooked through.
  7. 7 Remove from the grill, drizzle with lemon juice, and serve hot.
