Paneer Tikka

Paneer Tikka

Paneer Tikka is a popular Indian vegetarian dish made from cubes of paneer (Indian cottage cheese) that are marinated in a mixture of thick yogurt, aromatic spices, ginger, garlic, and lemon juice. The marinated paneer is then skewered along with vegetables such as onions, capsicum, and tomatoes, and traditionally grilled or cooked in a tandoor. This cooking method gives Paneer Tikka its signature smoky flavor and lightly charred texture on the outside while remaining soft and juicy inside. Served hot with mint chutney, lemon wedges, and onion slices, Paneer Tikka is enjoyed as a starter or snack and is loved for its rich taste, high protein content, and flavorful spices.
