The only way to be sure chicken is fully cooked is to take it's core temperature with a meat thermometer. The cooking time of anything can change because of a plethora of variables. Get a really good thermometer and a list of rare, medium, well done, temps for all the meats you cook and make sure you thoroughly cook chicken,,,and red meat for children.

Until no pinkness remains at the thickest part. (It would be unreliable to give a set timing to achieve this; best just making an incision in the chicken breast, checking it is piping hot and definitely not pink).

Can you boil frozen chicken breast and how long should I cook them for?

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)
