Not necessarily.
I know a lot of you in here like food. A few months ago I stumbled across a cooking meathod called sous vide. It is what a lot of restaurants use to cook meat and vegetables and it is completely idiot proof. I've cooked steaks, hamburgers, etc that people swear came from a top restaurant.
In short you put the food into a bag in warm water for a short amount of time (for most foods). You then finish it off using a grill, frying pan or blow torch (I kid you not). The finishing is for the aesthetics only.

Sous vide just cooks at an even temperature all around bc it's submerged in water
U still have to cook chicken to the correct internal temp using that method
And the finishing is for texture as well as appearance
