any warm portions with narrow strips of aluminum foil. Let stand, covered for 10-20
minutes.

Chops,
Fish
0.5-3.0 lbs.
After each stage, rearrange the food. If there are any warm or thawed portions of food,
shield them with narrow, flat pieces of aluminum foil. Remove any pieces of food that are
nearly defrosted. Let stand, covered for 5-10 minutes.
Ground
Meat
0.5-3.0 lbs.
After each stage, remove any pieces of food that are nearly defrosted. Let stand, covered
with foil for 5-10 minutes.
Whole

Remove giblets before freezing poultry. Start defrosting with the breast side down. After
the first stage, turn the chicken over and shield any warm portions with narrow strips of
aluminum foil. After the second stage, again shield any warm portions with narrow strips

After each stage, rearrange or remove any pieces of food that are nearly defrosted. Let
stand for 10-20 minutes.
Check the food when you hear the oven signal. After the final stage, small sections may still be icy; let them stand
to continue the thawing process. The food is not defrosted until all ice crystals have thawed. Shielding roasts and
pieces of steak using small pieces of foil prevents the edges from being cooked before the center of the food has
defrosted. Use narrow, flat, smooth strips of aluminum foil to cover edges and thinner sections of the food.
