Spread a layer of mayonnaise on top of the rice, adjusting the amount to taste.

Add a layer of chicken on top of the mayonnaise and press down.

Add a little bit of ham on top of the chicken layer.

Add a layer of cheese on top of the ham.

Add another layer of rice, followed by another layer of mayonnaise.
