Follow these straightforward steps to create your Garlic Parmesan Chicken Bake:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish.
2. Prepare Chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and lay them flat in the baking dish.
3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, dried oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
4. Coat Chicken: Drizzle melted butter over the chicken breasts, then evenly sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture on top, pressing down gently to adhere.
5. Bake Chicken: Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the topping is golden brown.
6. Check for Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
7. Garnish: Once done, remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley for a pop of color.
8. Rest: Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before serving to ensure juiciness.
