Place chicken breasts in a gallon-size resealable plastic bag. Pour in lemon juice, olive oil, black pepper, basil, oregano, and salt. Shake so that all the chicken gets covered.
Let marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes or up to 8 hours.
Preheat air fryer for 5 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Remove chicken from marinade and place in air fryer basket. Discard any remaining marinade.
Cook chicken for 12 minutes, flip, and place lemon slices on top(optional). Continue cooking for 10-12 additional minutes until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. How long this takes will depend on the size and thickness of your chicken breasts.
Serve hot. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and a slice of lemon(optional).
