Prepare the ingredients. Cut the boiled ham into dice; drain the peppers from the oil and cut them into thin strips; shell the eggs and separate the yolk from the white for six of them (set aside two eggs for decorating); cut the whites into dice and mash the yolk with a fork; put all the ingredients in a large bowl with the olive oil and chives and stir gently.
Meanwhile cook rice "al dente" stage. Drain it in the colander and run under cold water to stop the cooking.
Add the rice to the mixture in the bowl, season to taste with salt and blend in mayonnaise.
Cut into slices the two eggs and decorate the top.
Let sit at least 2 hours before serving or, if chilled first, bring back to room temperature to serve.
