NO. Do not use metal in the microwave. It will spark due to the charged particles that start going crazy in the metal.
Beside this, is parchment paper safe in the oven?
Like wax paper, parchment paper is also moisture-resistant and non-stick. But because it has been made with silicone, it can also be used in the oven, generally as high as 450 degrees. Even if your oven is a little hotter than that, the paper will usually darken but not burn.

What material should you never put in your microwave?
The most commonly-used household item you should never put in the microwave is aluminum foil. It’s essentially very thin metal which, when exposed to microwave radiation, will reflect the energy instead of absorbing it. This, in turn, can create sparks that could ruin the appliance, or worse, start a fire.
Will parchment paper burn in the oven?
The paper won’t release noxious chemicals, and will not burn. Most parchment paper is rated for use at temperatures no higher than 420 to 450 degrees. But we occasionally recommend using this liner for bread and pizza baked as high as 500 degrees.
