    I defrost chicken breasts in the microwave all the time, because I often forget to get it out of the freezer early enough. Don't know if it's strictly advisable, but I haven't had any nasty side effects so far!

    The only thing I would advise is to turn them every couple of minutes, or they tend to start cooking at the edges before they're fully defrosted in the middle.
