not cooked through. Place each chop or steak on a 25 cm (10 inch) square
of foil. Drain fat from pan, add butter, onion and garlic and fry gently
until onion is soft. Spoon on top of meat, leaving butter in pan. Place
2 slices of potato on each chop and brush with this butter. Top with
slices of tomato and sprinkle lightly with oregano or rigani. Finish with
a slice of cheese on top and fold foil, using double folds to seal each
package completely. Place close together in a baking dish (cheese
uppermost) and cook in a moderately slow oven for 1-1/2 hours.

Serve packages directly onto individual plates. Accompany with a tossed
green salad.
