Default Re: Best frozen stuff from TJ’s to cook on a George Forman Grill?

I have found to defrost them, I just stick them in my microwave and actually heat them on a regular setting, not defrost (defrosting too slow)for 2-3 minutes. They come out completely defrsoted.

I think a big problem with advice like this is pretty much every microwave I've ever used in my life was different. I know if I did this with my microwave, the outsides of my chicken would be completely dry (as in overcooked) while the center might still be partially frozen.

For those of you using a Foreman, you want to make sure your chicken is COMPLETELY thawed out, especially for thicker pieces. If not, you'll probably ned up with the outside pretty dark before the middle of the thick part is fully cooked. When it's fully thawed, it'll cook fast enough to not burn your baby.

I stand by the "pull breast out of freezer before bed and leave on counter and when you wake up marinate, cover and put into fridge for cooking come dinner."
