Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a shallow dish, mix together the Parmesan cheese, Panko breadcrumbs, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Place the flour in a second shallow dish and lightly dredge each pork chop in the flour, shaking off any excess.
In a third shallow dish, beat the eggs until combined. Dip each floured pork chop into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
Next, press each pork chop into the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture, making sure the crust adheres evenly on all sides.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Do this in batches if necessary to avoid crowding the pan.
Transfer the seared pork chops to the prepared baking sheet and place in the oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Remove from the oven and let the pork chops rest for 3-5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional parsley, if desired.
