12 min12:00 - 8
Serve the paneer tikka with lavash, lemon, and mint yogurt sauce.
💡 Tip: If you cannot find paneer, soak halloumi in water for 20 minutes to reduce its salt; its non-melting texture gives a similar result on a home grill.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve the skewers hot with mint yogurt sauce, lemon wedges, red onion, and lavash if desired.
