I have done this before and it does NOT taste as good but it does work. One time I did this, it had a tough texture and then second time was better but, definitely heat it up slowly in the oven.

How do you safely thaw out frozen food?
The safest place to defrost frozen food is under refrigeration. Food can be defrosted under cold water, or in the microwave (although microwave settings vary), or ideally in the refrigerator. If you are going to cook it right away, a lower setting on the oven can sometimes be used. Obviously, it depends on the type of food. Vegetables can be defrosted in the fridge, on the countertop if they are cut into pieces, or the ziploc bag can be soaked in water if you want to hasten the process. The same can be done with meat, except for the larger pieces of meat, which generally need to be defrosted in the refrigerator for 24 hours, and then brought out of the refrigerator, and left at room temperature for an hour before cooking. For smaller pieces of meat, you can defrost them in the microwave, but you have to be careful about accidentally cooking pieces on the meat. Cheese can be easily defrosted in the microwave, as long as you keep an eye on it. Instructions on frozen meat and fish packages often say to thaw in the refrigerator. That keeps it from spending too much time at room temperature where bacteria grow best. Frozen vegetables don't matter as much. If your food preparation method (recipe) allows for it, you can also put the frozen food directly into a pot for cooking, microwave it, or do it in an oven.

How to Avoid Freezer Burn in a Commercial Freezer?
Businesses who rely on the freshness and safety of their food know that keeping the food at the right temperature is critical. They can also tell you the importance of having food that tastes as fresh as the day that it was placed into the commercial freezer. Here are some ways to make sure that your food is not freezer burned. Organize Your Commercial Freezer Correctly In order to ensure that air circulates properly around the food in your commercial freezer, you should check to make sure that there is about six inches of free space between the sides and top of the freezer and the contents. This is very important to the proper operation of your commercial freezer. Failure to leave this space can change the temperature at which the food is being stored. Temperature variances in commercial freezers can result in freezer burn. Package Your Food Correctly In order to store your food in a way that avoids freezer burn, it is important to always store the food in proper packaging. Most pre-packaged frozen food will be placed into the commercial freezer in plastic bags and possibly boxes. If this is optimal and the food will be used quickly, freezer burn is a small risk. Long term storage containers should be used if the food will be in the commercial freezer for an extended period of time. Know the Contents and Date Your Packages Before placing anything into your freezer, mark it with a storage date. You can date it for when it goes into the freezer, or when it must be used. Either way, be consistent and pay attention to these dates. It is critical to know the storage life of your food. If you place uncooked meat into your freezer, for example, it should be used within six months to guarantee freshness. Failing to use the food in this period of time can and will result in freezer burn.
