Quite quick and very tasty? Try my baked cheese-stuffed chicken parmesan.

Shop for:
1 box of each: Rigatoni & Penne pasta.
1 jar: Newman's Own Italian Sausage pasta sauce.
1 jar: Emeril's Roasted Gahhhrlic pasta sauce.
1 jar: Italian Seasoning (or pick and choose your specific spices, but the mix I buy is perfect and quick)
1 package: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 package: Shredded mozzarella cheese (or a mix of cheeses containing mozzarella)
Extra virgin olive oil.
Italian seasoning bread crumbs.
Romaine lettuce & italian vinagarette or Caesar dressing.. Caesar garlic crutons.
Decent red wine. (For under $40, I prefer Kendall Jackson merlot (~$18 ).. if you must go under $10, Yellowtail Shiraz works.

To cook..
Boil rigatoni & penne pasta.

Heat equal parts of Newman's Own Italian Sausage & Emeril's Roasted Gahhhrlic pasta sauces. Mix in some italian seasoning (various mix of salt, pepper, basil, cilantro, and other spices). If using a pint size jar of each pasta sauce, I'll usually add 1/2 a cup to 1 cup of cabernet, merlot, or shiraz - red wine.

From the top, make a cavity inside each chicken breast you want to cook. Hard to describe, but think about taking the top off a pumpkin, but only cut 1/2 of the circumference of the top. Stuff the inside of the chicken breast with shredded mozzarella cheese (or some multi-cheese mix containing mozzarella).

Dip cheese-stuffed chicken breast in extra virgin olive oil to wet, then cover in italian seasoning bread crumbs. Put 'em in a pan in the oven at 400* for ~8-20 minutes. It really depends on how thick the chicken is, and how much cheese you used, so check your chicken every couple minutes until you get used to the time. Expect the cheese to ooze out of the chicken - that's fine.

Fix salads and drink wine while waiting for chicken to cook.

When chicken is done:
Put mixed pasta on plate, with chicken on top, cover with pasta sauce, then top off with grated parmesan and romano cheese.

There you go:
A quick salad while you're waiting, and a killer cheese-stuffed chicken parmesan.
If you use smaller chicken breasts, it's do-able in 20 minutes. The most difficult part of the meal is cutting the chicken just right to contain the most cheese during cooking.. but you could simply slice the chicken in half and put the cheese in the middle - like a chicken/cheese sandwich.
