Experience authentic Paneer Tikka at Petu Indian Curry & Kabab in Drumheller and Calgary. Our marinated cottage cheese cubes are grilled in a tandoor oven with bell peppers and onions for that distinctive smoky flavor. A perfect vegetarian appetizer made from scratch by Chef Kunwar Singh with over 40 years of culinary expertise.
Paneer Tikka is a beloved North Indian vegetarian appetizer and a specialty at Petu Indian Curry & Kabab. Our authentic recipe begins with fresh cottage cheese (paneer) cubes marinated in a traditional blend of yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, and aromatic spices including garam masala, cumin, coriander, and Kashmiri chili powder. The marinated paneer is then skewered alongside colorful bell peppers and onions, and grilled in our traditional tandoor oven, creating that distinctive smoky flavor and beautiful char.
What makes our Paneer Tikka special is the perfect balance of creamy paneer texture and bold tandoori spices. The tandoor's intense heat creates a beautifully charred exterior while keeping the paneer soft and creamy inside. The vegetables add a sweet crunch that complements the rich flavors perfectly. We serve our Paneer Tikka with fresh mint chutney and lemon wedges, making it an excellent vegetarian appetizer or side dish.
