The best way to thaw it out is to thaw it in the refrigerator. You should not just leave it on the counter.
You could also defrost it in the microwave. Using a cold water bath could work only if the package is completely sealed.
A little water on the meat won't hurt anything. The meat won't absorb the water. It will just evaporate during the reheating. I've thawed whole chickens in cold water. Your raw chicken meat should be washed anyway.
You should not take risks with chicken, it must be defrosted before it is cooked, you can defrost frozen chicken in a microwave or drop the meat into warm water and leave for at least an hour to defrost, and check they have before you cook them.

To defrost frozen chicken tenders in the microwave, place them on a microwave-safe plate. Use the defrost setting on your microwave and follow the manufacturer's instructions for time and power level. Make sure to check and stir the chicken tenders frequently to ensure even defrosting.
Parboiling is a method of pre-cooking where food is boiled in water and half-cooked before removing from the heat source. You should not parboil frozen or thawed chicken. Chicken needs to be completely defrosted and then fully cooked before serving.

you shouldn't boil frozen chicken. thaw at room temperature or defrost in a microwave before cooking ****Nonsense.**** Of course you can boil chicken from frozen without defrosting it first. Just make sure it is cooked all the way through. ****Double nonsense**** If you defrost first, you should defrost in the fridge or under running cold water. Don't defrost at room temperature. ***No nonsense*** Thawed chicken breasts take roughly 15-20 minutes to get to 165 F internal temp. If frozen add about another 10 minutes or so. If you have a meat thermometer, just check that they are 165+. It's also best to do it with a slow boil instead of a raging boil (for texture/flavor)
