Microwave ovens are ideal for defrosting food fast and evenly, and most models come with an Defrost setting.

You can also use the manual defrost option by placing the food on a microwave-safe plate, and following the directions on the interactive display of your microwave.
The defrost function in a microwave is activated by turning on the magnetron, which generates high frequency that heats food. The defrost mode uses lower power levels than other settings (around 20-30% of total output) which lets you thaw your food more slowly and without overcooking. It may be necessary to rotate your food or break up larger pieces of meat in order to ensure an even defrosting.
It is important to remember that defrosting food items in the fridge can take longer than in the microwave. However you can cook the remainder of the meal while it is defrosting. Defrosted meat shouldn't be left at room temperature too long. This can trigger bacteria growth. It is therefore a good idea to plan ahead by defrosting your meat at least an hour prior to the time you plan to cook it. To aid in planning your meal, many microwaves come with a handy timer function that displays how much time is left during the defrosting process.
