Best thing in 15 minutes

What is the tastiest dish that can be prepared in 15 minutes or less with the minimum of ingredients?

It has to be fish, the freshest, say John Dory or Halibut, filleted and gently poached for three minutes then grilled with seasoned fresh breadcrumbs for another minute. Serve tossed into a mixed leaf sald with your favourite dressing plus a large swig of Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc! Bet your salavating!

here's my favourite quick meal - pasta with chicken & tomato sauce. Gently fry two diced chicken breast fillets with half an onion and a clove of garlic (both chopped), and some Italian seasoning in a tablespoon of olive oil. When chicken is almost cooked (7 - 8 mins), add a tin of chopped plum tomatoes and simmer for another couple of minutes. Add a teaspoon of tomato puree if the sauce requires thickening. Serve with heaps of steaming pasta. The best thing is that you can add all sorts of leftover veg, or some cayenne pepper for a spicy version. It's never the same dish twice! Enjoy. (Oh yes, and you can drink whatever you like with this..)

A pair of Loch Fyne kippers, lightly grilled and served with a warm potato salad.

Line an ovenproof plate with cheese - put slices of tomato round the outside of the plate - break 1-2 eggs and put the whites only into the centre of the plate - put the plate in a very hot over until the egg white is almost set - pop on the yokes. Cook until yoke sets - NOT LONG or it will go hard.
Eat with lumps of French bread.

You'd be surprised how good a plate of spaghetti, drizzled with only good olive oil or butter and black pepper tastes = especially with a side salad.
