This is one of my favorite quick weeknight dinners because it comes together in less than an hour and impresses everyone at the table. Paneer and mushrooms are a match made in heaven, and I love how the smoky char from the grill brings out their natural flavors. Mushrooms are packed with nutrients and immune boosting compounds, plus they're incredibly affordable. The marinade is simple but fragrant with garlic and warm spices, making this dish feel fancy without any fuss.
