Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine all the sauce ingredients and mix well together. Set aside 3 tablespoons of sauce for serving.
  2. Next, add the paneer cubes, bell peppers, and onions to the bowl with the sauce and mix until everything is coated evenly.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, up to overnight, to marinate.
  4. After marinating, preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit (230°C) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
  5. Assemble your skewers, alternating all of the ingredients. Continue until all skewers are made.
  6. Next, spray the skewers with any oil spray so that the veggies don't dry out.
  7. Bake for 10 minutes, then broil for 1-2 minutes until the pieces look slightly charred.
  8. Remove from the oven, drizzle with the sauce you set aside, and enjoy!

Notes

  • To store Paneer Tikka Cheese, place the cooled skewers in an airtight container and refrigerate for 2-3 days.
  • To reheat, use a microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute until warmed through. I don't recommend freezing this dish due to the marinade, as it may alter the texture and flavor when thawed.
