Add the marinade ingredients to food storage container.
Pierce a few holes in the meat with a fork to help the marinade penetrate through. Salt and pepper both sides of each chicken piece.
Add the chicken to the bag of marinade and let the chicken, cover the dish, and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 8 hours.

When ready to cook your chicken, preheat oven to 375 degrees.
While waiting for the oven to preheat, remove the chicken from marinade and start the process of browning your chicken.
Salt and pepper the chicken again at the time if desired.
Let the chicken sit for a few minutes to help with even cooking.
Heat an oven safe pan using medium high heat using the stove top.
Once the pan is hot, add the olive oil to the pan.
Now add the chicken to the pan skin side down.
Brown the chicken on both sides for about 3 minutes or until the chicken is a nice golden brown.
Remove the chicken from the pan. Remove excess grease from the pan, leaving only a small amount of oil in the pan to cook the garlic and thyme (estimating about a few teaspoons or drizzles of oil).

Turn the heat off on the stove top. Add the garlic and additional thyme leaves to the pan and let it cook for only a few seconds until the garlic gets soft.
Add the sauce ingredients to the pan.

Then, add the chicken back to the pan. Place the whole mushrooms in the open spaces of the pan.
Bake uncovered for about 40 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees.
Remove pan from oven using an oven mitt. Salt and pepper to the sauce to taste.
