Ingredients

• Paneer - 400 grams
• Bell peppers (mixed colors) - 1 cup, diced
• Red onion - 1 medium, diced
• Greek yogurt - 1/2 cup

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, garam masala, turmeric powder, red chili powder, lemon juice, salt, and olive oil to create a marinade.
2. Cut the paneer into 1-inch cubes and add them to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
3. Preheat a grill pan or an outdoor grill over medium heat.
4. As the paneer is marinating, prepare the vegetables by cutting the bell peppers and red onion into 1-inch pieces.
5. Thread the marinated paneer, bell peppers, and red onion alternately onto the soaked skewers.
6. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until the paneer is golden and slightly charred.
