New house, have a microwave for the first time. I've only used it so far for popcorn and some defrosting (with mixed results, so not very often).
Needed to quickly cook a piece of plain chicken for DDog who is on a special diet from today, so I put one chicken fillet on a plate, in the microwave, full power, one minute. It started to explode before it was cooked - what am I doing wrong?! It's only for the dog, and I cooked it a bit more (with more explosions needed a full wipe down of the inside of the microwave) so the meat is fine to use, but I don't really understand what else I should have done - do you need to cover everything you cook?
Be gentle with me, I really have never "cooked" with a microwave before!
TIA.
