Parmesan Crusted Pork Chop

These have made a pork chop hater eat pork chops and not complain.

2 large eggs
1 cup italian bread crumbs
3/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese (it's in the dairy section with the rest of the shredded cheeses)
4 (1/2-3/4 inch) center cut pork chops
salt and pepper to taste
garlic powder to taste
6 tablespoons olive oil

Whisk eggs in shallow dish. Mix bread crumbs and garlic powder in a second shallow dish and shredded cheese in a third shallow dish (if you use a paper plate for the bread crumbs and the cheese it'll save you some dishes). Sprinkle chops with salt and pepper. Place chops in cheese first ( I know this sounds crazy but do it, it works. may have to press to adhere). then dip in the egg and then coat with bread crumbs, again, press to adhere. Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in very large skillet over medium heat. Add pork chops and cook until golden brown and the center reaches 150 degrees. This will take about 6 minutes on each side. Try not to move them around too much in pan, don't want to mess up your breading.
