This grilled paneer and fennel dish is one of my favorite ways to get dinner on the table in under an hour. The beauty of this recipe is its simplicity, perfect for busy weeknights when you want something impressive without fussing in the kitchen. Fennel is wonderfully aromatic and packed with fiber, making it a genuinely nutritious addition to any meal. Everything comes together on the grill, which means minimal cleanup and maximum flavor. The yogurt marinade keeps the paneer incredibly tender while the charred vegetables add a lovely smoky sweetness that brings the whole dish together beautifully.
