My friend defrost chicken without removing the plastic bag. i have eaten it. is it dangerous?

Microwave?: Hi, are you talking a microwavable frozen food? If that so usually the package is not heat resistant at high temperatures. It could melt into the food and cause harmful chemicals to migrate into food, next time take off the wrap and container and place the food in a microwave safe container.
