I suppose this is not a good idea because if the chicken as some bacteria on it, then the bacteria will be distributed on the counter and there would be a risk that it would get into other food items being prepared. The bacteria on the chicken will be washed off or be killed when it is cooked. It is important to was your hands and knives after preparing the raw chicken.
