Directions
Preheat the oven to 300°. Do not pound or flour the meat. Heat oil in a heavy skillet over high heat, then sear meat on both sides. Meanwhile, in a large roasting pan, combine the soy sauce, coffee, bay leaves, garlic, oregano, and one of the sliced onions. Transfer the browned meat to the roasting pan. Top with the second sliced onion. Cover and bake for 3½ to 4 hours, basting every hour with pan juices. If the liquid begins to boil away (this depends on the heaviness of your pan), add another cup of coffee and a liberal splash of soy sauce. You may have to reapeat this procedure; there should be quite a bit of liquid. cut the meat in thin slices and serve with pan juices.
