This is one of my favorite quick weeknight dinners that feels fancy but comes together in just 45 minutes. Grilled paneer with parsnip is a wonderful vegetarian dish that brings together creamy, smoky cheese with naturally sweet roasted vegetables. Paneer is packed with protein and calcium, making it incredibly satisfying without meat. The beauty of this recipe is how simple it is, yet the warm spices and tangy mango chutney make it taste like you spent hours in the kitchen. Trust me, your family will be asking for this one again and again.
