    6 servings

    6 (4-ounce) skinned, boned chicken breast halves
    1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
    1 teaspoon dried oregano
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon pepper
    3 garlic cloves, unpeeled
    1/4 cup low-fat buttermilk
    2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
    3 tablespoons reduced-calorie mayonnaise
    1 tablespoon water
    1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
    1/8 teaspoon salt
    1/8 teaspoon pepper
    Thyme sprigs (optional)

    Preparation:
    Preheat oven to 375°.

    Arrange chicken in a single layer in a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Pour vinegar over chicken, and sprinkle with oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Place garlic cloves in dish. Bake at 375° for 25 minutes, basting occasionally with pan drippings.

    Remove garlic from dish, and peel. Place garlic in a bowl, and mash into a paste. Add buttermilk and next 6 ingredients (buttermilk through 1/8 teaspoon pepper); stir with a wire whisk until well-blended.

    Cut each breast half diagonally across the grain into thin slices. Arrange 1 sliced breast half on each of 6 plates; spoon 1 1/2 tablespoons sauce over chicken. Garnish with thyme sprigs, if desired.
