If you don't want to cook at all, here are a few of my "stick it in the microwave" faves -
Microwave frozen broccoli (or other fave veggie) with a small amount of water. Drain. Top while still hot with chedder cheese or cheese of your choice. A quick and yummy (and healthy) side dish.
Uncle Ben's makes 90 second rice packets that are really good - and get this, all you do is open the packet and zap in the microwave for 90 seconds. That's it.
There are frozen pre cooked chicken strips which are similarly easy; just pop in the oven or the toaster oven. Another good side dish are Oneida tater tots - in the toaster oven at 450 for 20 minutes and done, no prep required. If you want an easy recipe for your own chicken, you can make fried chicken breast cutlets easily and quickly. Mix some milk and an egg in a bowl, and dip a cutlet into the mix. Then, on a plate, have some basic bread crumbs (from the grocery store) and dip the cutlet into the bread crumbs. Make sure it is well covered. Fry on a pan on medium heat (use oil! preferably vegetable oil) for about 9 minutes for each side, or until golden brown (not burnt). Cut into the middle to make sure the chicken is cooked through.
If you don't mind stirring, you can make risotto - just add broth of your choice (chicken, for example) to rice, and maybe some garnish such as mushrooms and slightly sauted onions. Keep cooking until rice is soft, and dont let it dry out - add more broth if necessary. It should be soft but not mushy. You can get creative here with the flavors too.
Pasta is always easy - just boil the pasta for 8 - 9 minutes (no more, no less), drain and serve. Butter and salt are good, or you can quickly dress up a basic sauce by browning some ground beef, onions and garlic in a pan and adding to the sauce over heat.
Miso soup is easy and kind of exotic - you can get the best kinds at asian groceries. Boil some water, and mix a bit of the miso paste into the water. If you want, cut up a bit of tofu, scallions, seaweed... whatever you want - and add. Alternatively, any canned soup is easy to just reheat. And look on the campbell's canned soup's labels for yummy (and fairly easy) recipies to prepare - mushroom chicken, etc. -

well it's not a dinner recipe but two really easy desserts :) A super easy recipe is Dump cake. You put a can of crushed pineapple and a can of cherry pie filling in to a 13x9 pan. Mix the two together in the dish and top with a whole box of yellow cake mix and then spread slivers of butter all over the top and bake at 350 degrees for one hour. (tastes like a pineapple upside down cake) Or you could buy a graham cracker pie crust fill it with instant pudding (follow pie filling directions on the box) and then top with cool whip. Easy Peazy

Shrimp on the avocado half shell (for 2 people).
(Shrimp in cheddar sauce over avocado)
1 Avocado
4-8 oz. Small shrimp, fully cooked, washed and drained
4-6 oz. can of peas & carrots, drained
1 can of Cheddar cheese soup (concentrated).
Empty the cheese soup concentrate into a sauce pan (do not add milk or water) and warm it on the stove, burner set to med.-low (optional, shredded cheddar could be added at this point). Cut in half & peal the avocado removing the seed, place a half on each plate cut side up. Once the soup is heated through, add the shrimp, peas & carrots, stir until they are warm (shrimp get tough if they get over heated). Split the contents of the pan between the 2 plated avocado halves.
Options, if you want to work harder and make it fancier:
Substitute the peas & carrots with sautéed mushrooms, onions and steamed petite broccoli.
Add shredded cheddar to the soup/sauce.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar on top and melt it in the broiler.
Sprinkle top with a confetti of diced red bell pepper & chives.
Substitute the avocado with baked puff pastry shells, (find unbaked in the frozen dept.).

Sheesh, looks like 'cut and paste' answers before me!!
Here's easy way to do chicken:
1. get the boneless, skinless chicken breast. the very very thin kind is best if you can find it. It cooks in about 3 minutes! Otherwise, you can cut it in chunks, it's easiest and least work. (personally, I cut it into thin cutlets, then pound them thin, but if I can find it already really thin, it's what *I* choose.._
2. put some butter (a tablespoon) and olive oil (same amount, more or less) in frying pan. (or a non stick pan with pam spray if you want really low fat , healthy :-) Heat it on medium-high, NOT on HIGH!! when the butter is bubbling, swirl it around with a spatula, fork, whatever. put in the chicken. don't crowd the pan! let it sizzle for one minute or so. stir chunks around, or flip the cutlet. cook it through, no pink.
3. add the flavor of the day, here are some ideas (only get to choose one per session!) do this with the chicken still in the pan, turn down the heat to medium low or low...
a) pinch of dried tarragon, then squirt of lemon juice, or squirt of fresh lemon (better) (or a LITTLE white wine instead of the lemon.) add another pat of butter to extend the natural sauce that develops. (you can change to any dried herb you like. If you use 'italian mix' , or 'basil' you could add a chopped fresh tomato right at the end...)
b) 1/2 fresh lemon, and some of the grated lemon peel (grate the lemon BEFORE you cut it in half. ) and then fresh grated course ground pepper, for lemon-pepper chicken. (good over buttered egg noodles)
c) Use the pam spray to cook the chicken, when done, add some jarred spaghetti sauce turn heat to low simmer 5 minutes or so., serve over favorite cooked pasta, top it with parmesan, romano or asiago cheese, fresh, and shredded by you.
d) use the pam spray to cook chicken. when it is done, put in some barbeque sauce. simmer on low for 5 minutes. serve with pineapple chunks if you like them.on the side, have a salad.
You can also use veal cutlets for all of the above if you eat veal.
another easy meal is chicken legs in a baking pan. put in barbeque sauce and chunks of pineapple. (without the juice... I drain it, and drink it with some meyers rum and ice while I cook THIS dish :-) cover with foil. bake 35-45 minutes in a preheated 375 degree oven (farenheit)
These are my fastest but most fancy recipies, can be served to guests and they always think you did so much work (NOT!!ha ha)
