Cook until shrooms are turning golden and smell delicious. Add onions and stir for a few moments to soften. Add garlic and fresh thyme, toss and remove from heat. Toss orzo with the mushroom sauté and season to taste. Add remaining olive oil to mixture if needed and serve. You may hold in oven set at 200 degrees if covered well and stirred often before serving.
