Take the lamb chops out of the fridge and let them come to room temperature for about 15 minutes before starting.
In a shallow bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly.
Place the flour in a separate shallow dish.
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs until smooth.
Working with one lamb chop at a time, dredge it in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess egg to drip off. Finally, coat the chop in the Parmesan-breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to help it adhere. Repeat with all the lamb chops.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded lamb chops in batches (do not overcrowd the skillet).
Cook the chops for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, or cook longer if desired.
Transfer the cooked chops to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve the Parmesan breaded baby lamb chops immediately with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
