Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, condensed cream of chicken soup, melted butter (1/2 cup), garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Stir in the finely chopped onion and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until evenly distributed.
Add the frozen hash brown potatoes to the bowl and gently stir until the potatoes are coated with the mixture.
Transfer the hash brown mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out into an even layer.
In a small bowl, toss the panko breadcrumbs with the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter until the breadcrumbs are lightly coated.
Sprinkle the buttered breadcrumbs evenly over the top of the hash brown mixture.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the top is golden and crispy, and the mixture is bubbling around the edges.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for an added burst of color and flavor, if desired.
