it depends on how small the chicken is? but if you place the chicken in a bowl and have the water constantly running over it, it will thaw out the fastest. even though this was wastes a lot of water, so depending on the amount of time you have....

about an hour, change the water frequently

The safe way to thaw frozen meat is in the refregrator. whatever kind it is.
if you thaw in water it should be running water. Chicken is one of the meats you want to be careful with it can cause sickness if handled poorly.
Now your question. It should not take more than an hour to thaw. But be sure and check the temp of the water. you don't want it to get too warm.
