1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup onion finely diced
3 cloves garlic minced
1/2 cup water
1 large bunch kale (curly and Tuscan both work here) stem removed and roughly chopped
1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
pinch red pepper flakes

In a large pan over medium high heat, add the olive oil. Once shimmering stir in the garlic and onion, and sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Quickly add water to your pan (to prevent garlic from burning), and reduce the heat to low.
Use tongs to add kale, twisting it in to coat the leaves in oil and water. Cover your pan with a lid, and cook the kale for 5-8 minutes. You'll know it's done once the kale has softened to your liking.
Remove the lid, and sprinkle kale with seasoning--toss to combine. Continue to sauté until the liquid has cooked off, should be about 2-3 minutes more.
