Place chicken breasts in a gallon-size plastic zip bag. Pour in lemon juice, olive oil, lemon pepper, basil, oregano and salt. Shake a little to cover chicken.
Let marinate in refrigerator for 30 minutes or up to 8 hours.
Heat a heavy skillet over medium-high heat.
Remove breasts from the marinade; place directly into the hot skillet. Discard marinade.
Cook chicken 6 - 7 minutes per side, flipping halfway through. Cook until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
