Grease the inside of your slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray or a light coating of butter.
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker. Season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine cream of chicken soup, sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until smooth.
Spread the creamy sauce mixture over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are fully coated.
Add the broccoli florets on top of the chicken and sauce mixture.
Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and the Parmesan cheese evenly over the broccoli.
Cover the slow cooker with its lid and cook on LOW for 4 hours, or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the panko breadcrumbs and stir until they are golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the cooking time is over, carefully remove the lid from the slow cooker. Sprinkle the toasted panko breadcrumbs over the top for added texture and crunch.
Serve the Crock Pot Chicken Divan warm, either on its own or over cooked white rice for a complete meal.
