Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Lightly grease it with olive oil or cooking spray.
In a shallow dish, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, dried Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the breadcrumb coating.
In a second shallow dish, whisk the eggs until fully mixed.
In a third shallow dish, place the all-purpose flour.
Season the pork chops on both sides with an additional pinch of salt and pepper.
Dredge each pork chop in the flour, shaking off any excess. Next, dip the pork chop into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is fully coated. Finally, press the pork chop into the breadcrumb mixture, coating it evenly on all sides.
Place the breaded pork chops onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Lightly drizzle the tops of the breaded pork chops with olive oil or spray with cooking spray to help them crisp up in the oven.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 145°F (63°C) when checked with a meat thermometer.
For an extra crispy coating, switch the oven to broil for the last 1–2 minutes of cooking, but watch closely to prevent burning.
Remove the pork chops from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. Pair with your favorite side dishes and enjoy!
