Cooking Steps
In a mixing bowl, add plain curd, ginger-garlic paste, coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala, red chili powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Mix well.
Add paneer cubes, bell peppers, and onions to the bowl and coat them with the curd mixture.
Cover the bowl with cling film and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Preheat the oven to 200°C or heat a grill pan over medium heat.
Thread the marinated paneer, bell peppers, and onions onto skewers.
Brush the skewers with oil and place them on the grill pan or baking tray.
Grill or bake the skewers for 10-15 minutes, turning them occasionally, until the paneer and vegetables are cooked and slightly charred.
Remove the skewers from the heat and serve hot.
