Ingredients

• 4 chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on
• 2 cups mushrooms, sliced (button or cremini work well)

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

2. Prep the Ingredients: Slice the mushrooms and onion. Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
3. Season the Chicken: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken thighs and coat them well with the seasoning.
4. Arrange in a Baking Dish: Place the seasoned chicken thighs in a large baking dish. Scatter the sliced mushrooms and onions around the chicken.
