Chicken Baked Rice

For tonite dinner, i try to make chicken bake rice. inspired from mozaru that serve in Zenbu one of japanese restaurant that just open month ago. Mozaru that i try is fill with butter rice and dynamite sauce is taste a lil bit sweet and creamy. Last nite, i surfing and find some baked rice recipe. the one i need is japanese style which like Zenbu one. But, couldn't find it. So i decide to try chicken baked recipe from happyhomebaking blog and modified into small portion - one portion only.   I have made some mistake on this experiment, i divide the bake rice into two bowl half-half. so some over-baked mozzarella cheese show around the bowl, make the appearance look so messy.  for the taste not bad but not sweet as zenbu' mozaru. mine is a lil bit creamy and taste like fried rice...

surely, i will try it next time and put some sugar for make it a lil bit sweet. Okay, here is the recipe that i make a little bit modified, add some leftover carrot and onion, divide into one portion only. oh, and change heavy cream to full cream milk because i dont have it at home. For more creamy, better use heavy cream than full cream milk.
