Steve's advice is right-on. I don't have a set routine for thawing,
just run the microwave at 20% for about five minutes, flip the meat and
let it rest a while, then repeat as needed. I find that the bottom of
whatever's cooking seems to cook faster in my microwave, hence the
flip. Any setting above 20% on my machine seems to cook the corners of
the meat....

My microwave has a strange method of setting the power. The
power-setting button is pushed repeatedly to decrease the power; two
times gives 80%, eight times gives 20%. Had a helluva time until I
broke down and read the manual.....

The microwave is great for cooking vegetables! Just be sure to use a
bit of water in the bottom, else the veggies on the top may dry out.
Unless company's coming, just drain the water and serve in the same
bowl.
