Steps

Heat the oven to 375 F and lightly grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking oil.
Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, whisk in the flour, and cook for 1 minute.
Gradually whisk in the milk, then stir in the mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, and salt.
Cook the sauce for 4 minutes until thickened, then stir in the chicken, ham, and Swiss cheese.
Spread the mixture in the baking dish.
Check that the thickest part of the poultry reaches 165 F before serving.
Melt the remaining butter, stir it with the panko and Parmesan, sprinkle it over the casserole, and bake for 30 minutes.
