Lightly grease the inside of your crock pot with non-stick spray or a small amount of butter.
Lay the chicken breasts at the bottom of the crock pot in a single layer.
Season the chicken breasts evenly with garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
Place 2 slices of ham on top of each chicken breast, ensuring they cover the chicken completely.
Place a slice of Swiss cheese over the ham on each chicken breast.
In a bowl, mix the cream of chicken soup and sour cream until smooth. Spoon this mixture evenly over the chicken, ham, and cheese layers in the crock pot.
In a separate bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs and melted butter. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top of the dish.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and set it to cook on LOW for 4-5 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).
Once cooked, scoop and serve the chicken and ham with Swiss onto plates along with some of the creamy sauce. Enjoy with a side of steamed vegetables, rice, or mashed potatoes.
