Paneer tikka is an amazingly quick to make and delicious snack. It has its origin in India. Paneer tikka is sometimes considered a luxury meal like Murgh Musallam, but making paneer tikka is not that complicated at all. If you are bored of eating that barbeque chicken then you should try this one sometime soon. You won't regret having it.

Paneer tikka

Ingredients :

Paneer/Cottage cheese (200g), Red Chili Powder(3 tsp), Turmeric Powder (2 tsp), Garam Masala (3 tsp), Lemon juice (1 Whole lemon), Capsicum (1 Chunk sized), Onion (1 Chunk sized) ,skewer, salt and oregano (Optional).

Recipe :

1) First cut the paneer into cube sized pieces.

2) Take 2 Tbsp Olive oil and add all the spices including salt and mix.

3) Add all the paneer pieces into the mixture and let it marinate for 30min or an hour. You could add the capsicum and onions to mixture as well to enhance the taste.

4) Now pierce through the capsicum, onion and paneer and stack them up on a skewer.

5) Now grill the the stuffing of skewer on a barbeque. If you do not have a barbeque you can still cook them on stove as well with the help of a grill but I would suggest that you should make it on barbeque, as the smoke to the tikka add amazing flavor to it.

This might seem an overkill of fats by seeing the list of spices and amount oil used in it. But this one is more healthier than the regular pizza. If you use low fat paneer then you could definitely cut the amount of fats,
