Mix the Parmesan, bread crumbs, garlic powder, and paprika together in a bowl.
Pour some of the mixtures in a line on the baking sheet.
Pour the melted butter into a long dish that is at least as long as the asparagus.
Dip a few spears in the butter, then roll them around in the cheese mixture.
Separate them out so they are in one layer.
Continue doing this until all the asparagus have been coated.
Drizzle any remaining butter on the asparagus, and put any remaining cheese mixture on top as well.
Bake for about 5 to 10 minutes, or until the asparagus starts to brown. They should still be crisp, don't let them get too soft.
