Preparation
Marinating the Paneer
Combine spices
In a bowl, combine the yogurt, ginger garlic paste, red chili powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, lemon juice, and salt.
Coat paneer
Mix until smooth, then add the paneer cubes, ensuring they're well-coated.
Refrigerate
Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Preparing the Skewers
Thread skewers
Thread the marinated paneer, bell pepper, and onion alternately onto the skewers.
Brush with oil
Brush lightly with oil.
Preheat grill
Preheat the grill or a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat.
Ensure the grill is well-oiled to prevent sticking. Pro Tip: Use a basting brush to keep the paneer moist while grilling.
Cooking Process
Grilling
Grill the skewers, turning occasionally, until the paneer is charred and the vegetables are tender, about 10-12 minutes.
Chutney Prep
Blend all chutney ingredients to a smooth paste, adjusting salt as needed.
