Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan).
In a shallow bowl, mix the bread crumbs and dried mixed herbs along with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Brush the chicken breast with olive oil, making sure it is evenly coated.
Press the chicken breast into the bread crumb mixture, ensuring it is well-coated on all sides.
Place the coated chicken breast on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until golden and cooked through.
While the chicken is baking, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Stir in the lemon juice and a pinch of salt, then remove from heat.
Once the chicken is cooked, drizzle the lemon butter sauce over the top and serve immediately.
