Preheat your skillet over medium heat or preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Prepare the oatmeal coating by pulsing the rolled oats in a food processor until coarse but not powdered. Transfer to a shallow dish.
In another shallow dish, mix the flour with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
In a third shallow dish, whisk the eggs with the milk until well combined.
Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel. Dip each pork chop into the seasoned flour, coating both sides, then dip into the egg mixture, and finally press into the pulsed oatmeal to coat thoroughly on both sides.
For skillet cooking: Add olive oil to the preheated skillet. Place the coated pork chops in the skillet and cook for 4-6 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Reduce heat if the coating browns too quickly.
For grilling: Lightly spray the grill grates with non-stick cooking spray. Place the coated pork chops on the preheated grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Be careful when flipping to prevent the coating from sticking.
Let the pork chops rest for 3 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Serve the oatmeal-crusted pork chops hot with your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
