Preheat air fryer to 360° Fahrenheit.
Remove basket from preheated air fryer. Place 1 pound frozen boneless, skinless chicken breasts in air fryer basket. Drizzle 2 teaspoons olive oil over chicken breasts, then sprinkle ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper evenly over chicken.
Return basket to air fryer. Air fryer chicken breasts 15 to 20 minutes, then pause air fryer and remove basket.
Flip chicken breasts over and return basket to air fryer. Air fry chicken breasts 10 to 15 minutes more, or until internal temperature of chicken breasts reaches 160° Fahrenheit.
When chicken reaches 160° Fahrenheit internally, carefully remove chicken from air fryer and transfer to plate or cutting board. Let chicken rest 5 minutes.
After 5 minutes, slice chicken breasts as desired, or transfer whole chicken breasts to serving plates and serve with desired sides.

Actual number of servings yielded will depend on size and number of chicken breasts cooked.
