Tandoori-Style Grilled Paneer Skewers

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 pieces wooden skewers, soaked in water

• 1 cup plain yogurt
• 2 tablespoons tandoori masala
• 1 teaspoon ginger paste
• 1 teaspoon garlic paste
• 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon cumin powder

• 1 teaspoon red chili powder
• 1 teaspoon salt

Method

1. 01
   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. 02
   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. 03
   Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
4. 04
   Thread the marinated paneer, bell pepper, and onion alternately onto the soaked wooden skewers.
5. 05
   Brush the skewers with vegetable oil to prevent sticking on the grill.
6. 06
   Grill the skewers for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the paneer is lightly charred and cooked through.
7. 07
   Remove from the grill, drizzle with lemon juice, and serve hot.
