Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Lightly grease a baking dish with a bit of olive oil or non-stick spray.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to form a marinade.
Place the chicken fillets on a cutting board and pat them dry with paper towels.
Brush the marinade evenly over both sides of each chicken fillet.
Arrange the marinated chicken fillets in the prepared baking dish.
Drizzle fresh lemon juice over the chicken fillets to add a citrusy zest.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top of the chicken for a crusty finish.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165Β°F (74Β°C).
Remove the baking dish from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the chicken fillets hot, garnished with a slice of lemon or fresh herbs such as parsley if desired.
