Have frozen breasts. Figured it would be best way to start my new anova.
Think about adding S&P and some rosemary to the bag with the frozen breast(s)
Input appreciated.

i did some chicken thighs last night that were frozen. i thawed them out in the bag first. anova set to 80 for about 20-30 minutes. once thawed, i added a marinade (homemade, a little rice wine vinegar, salt pepper and garlic, and some seasoning from red stick spice co here in br). Then set to 150 for 2 hrs. sliced it and mixed in with an orzo pasta salad.
your idea sounds great; don't forget to finish it in a skillet to brown if serving by itself.

I think serious eats recommends adding an hour to the cook time for frozen items.

Q: Can I cook a sous-vide chicken breast straight from the freezer?
Yes! Chicken breasts can be seasoned and sealed in bags, then frozen as-is. To cook, pull them out of the freezer and drop them straight into the water bath, making sure to add an extra hour to the cooking time in order to allow the chicken to fully thaw and heat through to the center.

Get some thighs and put them on a grill.

Put a pad of butter in with them, I would recommend some type of herb butter but regular is better than none.
Just leave them in longer if frozen

I've heard a half hour in the bath to thaw, but I suppose it depends on the thickness and how cold the freezer runs. If it's a piece of meat you can usually palpate it to check to see when it's thawed.
Chicken breasts turn out very good for a sandwich or in a salad btw.
