Ingredients
- 1 pound paneer, cut into cubes
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste
- 2 tablespoons tandoori masala
- 1 tablespoon red chili powder
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 1 red onion, diced
- 1 cup quinoa
- 2 cups water
- 1 cucumber, diced
- 1 tomato, diced
- 1/4 cup fresh coriander, chopped
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
Instructions
- 1In a mixing bowl, combine yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, tandoori masala, red chili powder, lemon juice, oil, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
- 2Add the paneer cubes to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
- 3While the paneer is marinating, rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil, add the quinoa, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside to cool.
- 4Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Thread the marinated paneer, bell pepper, and red onion onto skewers.
- 5Grill the skewers for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the paneer is golden brown and slightly charred.
- 6In a large bowl, combine cooked quinoa, cucumber, tomato, and fresh coriander. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- 7Serve the grilled paneer tikka hot alongside the refreshing quinoa salad.
