- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
- In a large pot of boiling water, cook the kale until tender, about 5 minutes.

- Coarsely chop the kale.
- Meanwhile, in a large, deep skillet, melt the butter in the olive oil.
- Add the onion and cook over moderate heat until softened and golden brown, about 7 minutes.
- Add the shiitake, season with salt and pepper and cook over moderately high heat, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes.
- Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shiitake are richly browned, about 5 minutes longer.
- Add the chicken broth and kale to the skillet and toss.
- Cover and cook over moderate heat, stirring a few times, until the kale is sizzling, about 3 minutes.
