My menu:

Gefilte fish, salmon, chicken soup with lukshen, homemade potato salad, Cole slaw and maybe cucumber salad. I then serve a little chicken and a veg kugel. It's more than enough.

Does no one else start the meal with eggs in salt water?

Eggs in salt water
Gefilte fish and salatim
Soup and kneidlech
Schnitzel, and potato kugel, with a cooked vegetable
(If there's time before chatzot, and there normally isn't, compote and Pesach cake.)
Afikoman

If we're running late and it's getting close to chatzot we might skip a course or serve two courses at the same time. It works.

How does everyone make their chicken for the seder if it can't be roasted?

Lots of sauce so it's not considered roasted.
Or on the stove top.

Cooked on the stove top over a lot of sautéed vegetables in a wine sauce.

We serve everything in 1 course because we're usually out of time and rushing.

I also don't serve chicken soup. I find it temporarily fills but leaves people hungry in the middle of night or during davening the next day.

I do either deep fried schnitzel (only time a year I ever make it and it's a family favorite)
Chicken Roast in Duck Sauce
Or Pastrami Roast
These are our families favorites.

Also
Potato kugel
Apple kugel
Tzimmes
Cucumber salad
Roasted veggies
