Turkey casserole cooked in microwave?

I intended cooking some diced turkey thigh in the slow cooker today and forgot all about it.

Doh!

I remember a few years ago I cooked something similar in the microwave but can't remember how long for and what settings.

I have a 850w microwave.

Can someone please give me and idea how long to cook it for and on what setting please?

Would it be low or simmer?

Ta.

  • Sorry. I don't have exact timings but I'd put it in a sauce and start off on high for about five minutes and then simmer until the meat is tender.

    Thanks for the info, I did just that and it was lovely and tender.

    I never use my microwave for cooking much, just reheating and defrosting as I prefer to cook from scratch on the hob.

    ;)
