Method

1

Pat paneer cubes dry with paper towels to help them absorb the marinade.

2

Combine Greek yogurt, garam masala, minced garlic, minced ginger, lemon juice, and salt in a large bowl and whisk until smooth.

3

Add paneer cubes to the marinade and gently toss to coat evenly. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes (up to 8 hours for deeper flavor).

4

Thread paneer cubes and vegetable chunks alternately onto skewers, starting and ending with paneer.

5

Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.

6

Place skewers on the grill and cook for 3–4 minutes per side until paneer is lightly charred and vegetables are tender-crisp (total 12–15 minutes).

7

Transfer skewers to a serving plate. Top the yogurt dipping sauce with chopped cilantro. Serve tikka warm with lemon wedges and the yogurt sauce on the side.
