Your main concern will be from the potential contamination that happens in the defrosting process. Although many types of bacteria will die if exposed to freezing temperatures, there are those that don't. You should look into that for the bacteria that is typically found in raw chicken. It may be that those bacterium can only be cooked out of the food. I wouldn't risk it.
