Notes

  1. Always use the Paneer that is refrigerated and not frozen. Also, Paneer should not be of room temperature, otherwise, its pieces will break.
  2. Cut Paneer in bit pieces, almost like 1-2 inches. That way Paneer will not break when grilling or baking. If you cut Paneer really small then most of the pieces will fall from the skewers.
  3. Marinate Paneer for at least 1-2 hours in the refrigerator. that will result in soft & juicy Paneer Tikkas.
  4. Before adding Paneer in skewers (if using bamboo ones) soak them in water. that way the skewers will not get burned.
  5. When grilling, spray butter on one side and bake them. Keep rotating the skewers when baking for even charred flavor & color.
