Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a loaf pan lightly.

  3. Add garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, paprika, and dried parsley, mixing gently until just combined.
Assembly
  1. Spread half of the meat mixture into the bottom of the prepared loaf pan.
  2. Layer thin slices of ham over this base, followed by the Swiss cheese.
  3. Cover with the remaining chicken mixture, sealing the edges well.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 45–55 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  2. Optionally, sprinkle breadcrumbs and melted butter over the top in the last 5 minutes for a crispy finish.
