Got any excellent 15-minute recipes?

Title of the thread is self-explanatory. Give me recipes (the healthier and the tastier the better) that can be prepared in fifteen minutes, because I’m in a bit of a culinary ideas drought at the moment.

As an example, I am currently eating pasta primavera (ziti with parmesan, tomatoes, spinach, and zucchini) in a quick-fired olive oil-and-herb sauce. All it involved was chopping up some vegetables, warming some olive oil and herbs, and cooking the veggies with the pasta before stirring it into the saucepan and adding the cheese.

I generally cook on a stovetop, as opposed to baking. I like food from different cultures, and I am not afraid of spices. Thanks in advance!
Addendum: Grits, beets, lima beans, and sausage need not apply. :)
