Paneer Tikka

Ingredients

• 250g paneer, cut into cubes
• 2 tbsp Aai cha Tikka Masala
• 1/2 cup thick yogurt
• 1 tbsp ginger-garlic paste
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp red chili powder
• 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
• 1 tsp garam masala
• 1 tsp chaat masala
• 1 tbsp oil
• 1 capsicum, cubed
• 1 onion, cubed
• 1 tomato, deseeded and cubed
• Salt to taste
• Butter for basting
• Lemon wedges and onion rings for serving

Instructions

1. 1 In a large bowl, whisk together yogurt, Aai cha Tikka Masala, ginger-garlic paste, lemon juice, red chili powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, chaat masala, oil, and salt to make a smooth marinade.
2. 2 Add paneer cubes, capsicum, onion, and tomato to the marinade. Gently mix until all pieces are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, preferably 2-3 hours for better flavor.
3. 3 If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning. Thread the marinated paneer and vegetables onto the skewers alternately.
4. 4 Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) or heat a grill pan over medium heat. Place the skewers on a greased baking tray or the grill pan.
5. 5 Cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with butter, until the paneer is golden brown and slightly charred at the edges.
6. 6 Sprinkle some chaat masala and squeeze lemon juice over the tikka. Serve hot with mint chutney, onion rings, and lemon wedges.
