Instructions
  1. Heat a large pot over high heat.
  2. Drizzle 2 tbsp of olive oil into the pot. Add the chopped onion and cook until it turns translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  3. Add the crushed red pepper and garlic. Cook until the garlic turns fragrant, about 1 minute.
  4. Tear the kale leaves right off the spine with your hands so that the leaves are in equal-size pieces, and add the kale to the pot. Pour the vegetable broth over the kale and bring to a boil.
  5. Add the white wine vinegar along with salt and pepper. Reduce the heat to a simmer and let cook for 40 minutes.
  6. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, place the sautéed kale on a plate and add hot sauce to taste.
  7. About 15 minutes before the kale is finished cooking, prepare the flounder. Heat the remaining oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season the fish with salt and pepper and add it to the skillet, skin side up. Cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes.
  8. Turn the fish over and continue cooking 2 to 3 minutes more.
  9. Remove the fish from the skillet and serve immediately over the sautéed kale.
