I find that what I really need in a kitchen is lighting where I work. I know that you said no new fixtures but there are stick on battery operated lights (like stick up air fresheners) that can go under cabinets/above counter tops and they’re super inexpensive. You can definately get them at home depot. I just checked Amazon and they have many styles and are about 10 bucks.
Well, if you by lighting standards, you’ll need about 2000 watts (almost kidding).
The best way since you can’t add fixtures is to add a track. A couple of strategically placed 50w halogen spots and a downlight or two will be more than enough.
