Why is frozen chicken so buoyant? It seems whenever I try to defrost chicken in a sink of warm water, it always floats to the top. It's so frustrating. Oh well, I guess it's just part of life, floating frozen chicken. What can you do?

Think of frozen chicken as a giant ice cube~ when it defrosts, it'll sink :) I've found that putting one of those things you put hot things on (mine is black and really heavy) keeps it under for a while. I'm sorry about the chicken.... stupid bird!
Chicken boobs!!!!!!
I put my chicken breasts in a freezer ziplock bag and fill it all the way up with hot water and zip it up....Then set it on the counter. that way it doesn't matter if it floats, and you don't have to take up your kitchen sink! DOUBLE BONUS!!
That is hilarious! So long as it thaws, I don't really care if it floats or not. I just flip it. :)
