Other Options:

• Oven- If you do not have barbeque do not worry we can make paneer tikka in the oven too.To make paneer in the oven preheat the oven on 375 F . Now arrange all the skewers in the grill/pizz dish.Cook till paneer is pinkish red. Do not over cook.(takes about 10 minutes)
• Gas Stove-If you neither have barbeque nor oven, you can still make pannr tikka at home on gas stove. Hold the skewers and cook over the medium flame like we do for rotis.

Do not forget to brush oil to avoid sticking of veggies and paneer.

Set all the veggies and paneer in the skewers in advance,and can be barbequed at the party time
