- 3 Mix bread crumbs, capers, parsley, and garlic together in a bowl.
- 4 Sprinkle some of the bread crumb mixture into the bottom of the baking dish. Arrange some anchovies in a single layer in the baking dish, still open like a book. Brush lightly with olive oil; cover with some of the bread crumb mixture. Repeat layers with remaining anchovies, olive oil, and bread crumb mixture.
- 5 Bake in the preheated oven until top is crispy and lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
