Steps:

• Make the sauce: Pulse all sauce ingredients together until mostly smooth. (The sauce will be very salty. That's okay, it'll tone down once it mixes with everything.)
• Prep the pasta: Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
• Cook down the kale: While the pasta is cooking, melt the butter over medium heat in a large skillet. Add the garlic; sauté for 1-2 minutes. Add the kale; sauté for 1-2 minutes. Add the wine, water, or broth; let it sizzle out for a minute.
• Finish: Add drained, cooked pasta and sauce. Toss to combine. Season to taste with Parmesan, lemon, red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper. Fast, easy, yum.
