Paneer Capsicum is a flavorful vegetarian paneer dish with aromatic Indian spices and rich texture. This high protein vegetarian option is perfect for family meals and supports healthy, protein-rich eating.
Cut paneer into 1-inch cubes and set aside. Slice the green bell peppers and onions into strips for even sautéing.
Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat; when oil is hot but not smoking, add cumin seeds and wait until they sizzle.
Add sliced onions; sauté on medium heat until translucent, 2–3 minutes. Stir in ginger-garlic paste and cook until raw aroma disappears.
Add chopped tomatoes, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Cook on medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes soften and oil begins to separate, about 7–8 minutes.
Increase heat to medium-high. Add bell peppers and cook for 3 minutes until just starting to soften, then add paneer cubes. Gently toss to coat and cook 4–5 minutes, allowing paneer to absorb flavors without overbrowning.
Sprinkle garam masala over the mixture, stir gently, and cook for 2 more minutes over low heat to meld the spices together. Taste and adjust salt if necessary.
Remove from heat and let stand for 2 minutes to allow flavors to settle before serving.
