Most microwaves come with the Defrost option which allows you to defrost food quickly and evenly. This setting usually will prompt you to input the type of food you want to defrost and its weight, and calculates the best time for defrosting based on these factors. You can also use the manual defrost option by placing the food on a microwave-safe plate and following the instructions on the interactive display of your microwave.

The defrost mode in a microwave operates by cycling the magnetron-which generates high frequency that turn food on and off. The defrost mode uses less power than other settings (around 20-30% of the total output) this lets you thaw your food more slowly and without overcooking. To ensure even defrosting, you may need to rotate the food or break up larger pieces of meat to keep them separated.

It is important to remember that thawing food in the refrigerator can take longer than using a microwave but it does have the benefit of cooking the rest of your meal while it is defrosting. Defrosted meat shouldn't be kept at room temperature too long. This could encourage bacterial growth. Therefore, it's recommended to prepare by defrosting the meat at least an hour prior to the time you intend to cook it. To aid you in planning, most microwaves have an easy timer feature that shows how long remains during the defrosting process.
