INGREDIENTS
150g Paneer
0.25 cup cooked Chickpeas (40g)
1 medium Red Bell Pepper (120g)
1 small Zucchini (100g)
0.25 medium Yellow Onion (40g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Ground Cumin
1 teaspoon Ground Turmeric
1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cut the paneer into 1/2-inch thick slices and pat dry.
Slice the red bell pepper, zucchini, and onion into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, combine the ground cumin, turmeric, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
Lightly coat the paneer slices with a sprinkle of the spice mix on both sides.
Heat a teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the spiced paneer slices in the skillet and pan-sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they develop a crispy, golden exterior.
In a separate pan, add the sliced vegetables along with the remaining spice mix. Sauté over medium heat until the vegetables are tender and just starting to char, about 5-6 minutes.
Stir in the cooked chickpeas and heat through for an additional 2 minutes.
Serve the crispy paneer atop the spiced vegetables and chickpeas, garnishing with an extra sprinkle of black pepper if desired.
