Is your friend a millennial? I have noticed that quite a number of my peers have like an irrational fear of raw chicken giving them salmonella, like to the point that I know some who don't even want to TOUCH raw chicken. As a kid It did seem like they tried to petrify us with the salmonella talk but yeah I think it lead to a lot of millennials fearing to even look at raw chicken and I could see someone like that wanting the chicken to not be "wet"
Use a knife to cut into the thickest part of the meat and see if it is white and the juices are running clear. Once the thickest part comes out cooked, then you know the rest of it is all ready to eat.
YES. totally a millennial thing. My first job at 14 was a line cook. If you couldn't cook it perfect you were in the dish pit of shame.
