Stir in diced tomatoes, peas, corn, and shredded chicken; cook until heated through.

Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and bay leaf; mix well.

Combine the cooked rice with the chicken mixture in the skillet; stir to combine evenly.

Transfer the rice mixture to a greased baking dish.

Pour cream over the top and sprinkle cheese generously.

Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes.

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is golden and bubbly.

Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
