During the process, the liquid can be made warmer to speed up the defrosting process.

In addition, the dish with chicken can be placed close to heat sources. For example, near a switched-on stove or radiator.

You shouldn't use hot water, because the product will turn into a "rag". This won't affect the taste, but the dish will look like a three out of five.
