Watch for symptoms : Watch for symptoms of nausea, cramping and/or diarrhea. If this occurs, contact your doctor or visit emergency department or minor medical clinic. He will probably be okay - many people eat undercooked food every day and are just fine.

Not a problem: The scary issues with chicken or similar products are on the outside surface. This differs from hamburger that is a blend of shredded meat rather than solid. If the outside of a solid chunk of meat is cooked well, it kills any germs that might have been on the surface and they don't get inside solid meet. Just monitor the situation, but problems are unlikely.
