These Spicy Paneer Tacos with Jalapeño Cilantro Crema are made with soft paneer, mini parathas and your favorite taco seasonings! Easy to make and perfect for a quick, family friendly meal.
Paneer Tacos are my go-to vegetarian taco recipe because they taste incredible an are super simple to make. There’s only about 20 minutes of hands on time, and that includes preparing any optional taco fillings like chopping peppers, cilantro, radish and even making Jalapeño Cilantro Cream.
