AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the impatience of marinating chicken in curry paste and yogurt, with the original poster expressing frustration over the recommended 24-hour marination time. They consider microwaving the chicken to expedite the process, hoping that heating it would allow the marinade to penetrate more quickly. Other participants suggest that while microwaving could work, it may pose risks of food poisoning. The conversation touches on the idea of using vacuum sealing for quicker marination, but the original poster lacks the necessary equipment. Ultimately, they decide to proceed with cooking the marinated chicken with onions and tomatoes, indicating a willingness to take risks for a quicker meal.

My chicken is marinating in curry paste/yogurt and I have the onions and tomato ready to add, but what's this the curry paste jar says I have to wait 24 hours for the marination process to complete I can't wait that long my stomach will eat itself from the inside out there must be a quicker way to do this!
I thought that maybe microwave the stuff for a short time this would in effect heat the chicken pieces from the inside out? so when it cools it will suck in the marinating mixture has anybody got any ideas on this or am I about to give myself food poisioning ?

Fall colors are here, no mosquitos, no deer flies, and mild temperature, so my morning run was unusually nice. Only two meetings today, and both went well.
