Method
 

  1. Heat the oven to 375°F and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. Cut the chicken into 1-inch cubes and season with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken in two batches until browned on the outside, about 4 minutes per batch. It will finish in the oven.
  3. Spread the chicken in the baking dish. Dice the ham and scatter it over the chicken.
  4. In the same skillet over low heat, whisk the softened cream cheese, heavy cream, chicken broth, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice until smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour the sauce evenly over the chicken and ham.
  5. Sprinkle the shredded Swiss over the top.
  6. Crush the pork rinds into fine crumbs, then mix them with the parmesan and melted butter. Scatter over the cheese.
  7. Bake uncovered for 20 to 25 minutes, until the sauce is bubbling, the chicken reaches 165°F, and the topping is golden.
  8. Rest 5 minutes, then sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.
