Ingredients

• 500 grams Paneer
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 teaspoons Fresh ginger, grated
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 8 pieces Skewers

Directions

Step 1

Cut the paneer into 1-inch cubes and set aside.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, ground cumin, ground coriander, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Add the paneer cubes to the bowl and gently toss to coat each piece well with the marinade. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to absorb.

Step 4

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 10 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.

Step 5

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

Step 6

Thread the marinated paneer cubes onto the skewers.

Step 7

Brush the grill grate with a little olive oil to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Place the paneer skewers on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until lightly charred and heated through.

Step 9

Remove from the grill and let it cool for a minute.

Step 10

Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.

Step 11

Serve immediately and enjoy this paleo-friendly dish with a side of grilled vegetables or salad.
