When chicken is browned, add chicken broth, oregano, basil and lemon juice. Bring to a boil. Turn heat down and simmer until chicken is done (between 20 and 30 minutes).
Take chicken out of the pan. In a separate container, put cornstarch in with enough broth from the pan to make the mixture runny but not too watered down. Bring broth to a boil, slowly stir in cornstarch mixture, stirring constantly. Bring back to a boil, boil for 1 minute and then let stand for two minutes. Sauce should have thickened.
