Remove thighs to a plate and set aside.
Add sliced mushrooms to the pan and cook until browned, about 6-8 minutes.
Add garlic and cook until softened, 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Deglaze with white wine and cook until almost evaporated, about 2 minutes.
Add chicken broth and bring to a slight simmer. Stir in orzo.
Return chicken thighs to skillet, skin side up.
Transfer skillet to preheated oven and bake for about 25 minutes, until orzo and chicken are cooked.
