*Fish, salmon or whatever. (dh only eats salmon) you can grill it even from frozen pretty quickly.

*You can microwave sweet potatoes (reg ones ones too) for a quick side dish.

(I have never seen noodles that take 20 minutes. mine all cook in 12 minutes from boiling, and if I am in a rush I boil the water in the kettle first.)

*bulgar wheat (you make tabouli from it) is really quick - just throw boiling water over it and it is cooked in a few minutes. You can have it with tomato sauce or make it into a salad.

Am I the only one that feels that most basic dinner foods take around a half-hour to make? What are people making that takes so long? A brisket? Turkey?

Even if chicken takes an hour to cook, the prep time is minimal, so you can pop it in the oven right when you get home and it'll be ready fairly quickly.
