Soak the bamboo skewers in water for about 30 minutes. Poke the marinated paneer cubes into skewers, alternating it with colored peppers, onions and tomatoes. Brush some light cooking oil or spray some cooking oil on them.
Place on a greased tray if you are going to use the oven. Broil them in the oven for about 12-15 minutes at 400 degree F. Turn them half way, so both sides are lightly browned .
An open grill tastes the best, place the skewers on a preheated grill for 8-10 minutes, turning frequently, until cooked through and lightly browned. Squeeze some fresh lime juice just before they are served
Prepare a platter with ketchup, ranch sauce or just plain yogurt. Enjoy!
