A few days ago, we shared the recipe for preparing caramelized onions, and today we’ll use them as a side dish for this fish recipe—a perfect combination of flavors and textures. We’ve chosen hake for these fish medallions because it has tender meat, few bones, is easy to cook, and has a mild flavor. This dish can be served not only with caramelized onions but also with a portion of mashed potatoes or white rice....

Cut the hake into medium-sized medallions, leaving the skin and bones intact.
In a large pot, combine the water and milk, add the parsley, and season with salt to taste.
Bring the liquid to a boil, then add the hake medallions. Let them boil for one minute, turn off the heat, and allow them to rest in the liquid for about 15 minutes.
Carefully remove the hake medallions, drain them, and remove the skin and bones.
Adjust the seasoning by adding salt and a bit of pepper.
Heat the caramelized onions in the microwave.
Serve the hake medallions accompanied by the caramelized onions, along with a portion of mashed potatoes or white rice.
