Prepare the Breading Station:
Lightly beat the eggs in a shallow dish. In two separate shallow dishes, place the panko breadcrumbs and flour. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper. Coat each pork chop in flour, then dip it into the beaten eggs (shake off excess), and press it into the panko breadcrumbs on both sides to adhere.
