A thawing rack. The thawing rack includes a base including a plurality of parallel oriented rods, a first end, and an opposing second end. A pair of outermost rods of a first rack are in sliding engagement with a pair of outermost rods of the base at the first end thereof, and a pair of outermost rods of a second rack are in sliding engagement with the pair of outermost rods of the base at the second end thereof. One or more springs are configured to bias the first rack away from the second rack. The first and second racks can be compressed and slid inwardly toward one another and then released when the thawing rack is positioned within a sink basin. The force exerted by the springs causes feet disposed on the distal ends of the first and second racks to frictionally engage the sidewalls of the sink basin.
