In a small bowl, combine half the salt, half the pepper, the thyme, and the oregano. Rub the herb mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken breast.
Heat half the olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, flip, and cook for 6 to 8 minutes more until the center is opaque. Transfer the chicken to a board to rest. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Wipe out the skillet and return to medium heat with the remaining oil. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the zucchini noodles and the remaining salt and pepper. Sauté, tossing often, for 3 minutes until just tender but not mushy.
Stir the lemon juice into the noodles to create a light glaze. Slice the rested chicken breast into strips.
