this is an extended version or healthier version of paneer tikka recipe and i personally prefer paneer hariyali tikka instead of traditional one. to be honest i learned this recipe recently during our potluck barbecue with my husband’s friend. one of my husband’s friend had brought hariyali mushroom tikka with loads of mint and coriander freshness in it. initially i was surprised with the green tikka colour, however i was already in love with my first bite. i have used and adopted the same concept here for the hariyali paneer tikka recipe.

furthermore some important tips and suggestions for perfect dry paneer hariyali tikka recipe. firstly, if you are running short of pudina leaves or even coriander leaves, you can use store bought green chutney or even sandwich chutney. secondly, always use green chilies rather than red chilly powder to have green paneer tikka recipe. alternatively you can also add green colour to have extra dark green colour. lastly, the marination is the key step here and do not skip it. the marination process can be hasten by refrigerating for 30 to 45 minutes.
