Recipe View Serve Immediately: Transfer the garlic kale to a serving dish and serve immediately. It pairs well with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or as a nutritious addition to any meal.

For a richer flavor, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice at the end.
If you prefer a softer kale, cover the pan for the last few minutes of cooking to steam it slightly.
Feel free to experiment with other seasonings, such as smoked paprika or nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor.
Massaging the kale leaves with olive oil before cooking helps to soften them.
