Heat half the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces, half the salt, and half the pepper. Cook for 4 minutes, stirring often, until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken to a plate. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Add the remaining oil to the same pan. Stir in the mushrooms and onions. Cook for 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened and the mushrooms are browned. Add the garlic and thyme, cooking for 1 minute more until fragrant.
Stir in the rice, broth, and the remaining salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes until the liquid is absorbed.
Remove the pan from the heat. Stir the cooked chicken and any juices back into the rice. Cover and let the pot rest for 5 minutes.
Fluff the rice with a fork and stir in the fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
