Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil.
Season the halibut steaks on both sides with salt, black pepper, and paprika, then place them in the prepared baking dish.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Once melted, stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Remove the saucepan from heat and mix in the breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, and lemon juice until the mixture is evenly combined.
Spoon the breadcrumb mixture over the top of each halibut steak, pressing down gently to adhere.
Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the breadcrumb topping to help it crisp up in the oven.
Bake the halibut steaks in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the dish from the oven and let the halibut rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve the halibut steaks with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of freshness. Pair with steamed vegetables or a side salad for a complete meal.
