Cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente. Cut the shallots into rings. Remove the woody stems and ribs from the kale and slice into ½ inch strips.

Drain the sardines from the can, reserving 1 tbsp oil. Set the reserved oil in a pan and cook the shallots, garlic, and pine nuts for 3 min. Add the olive oil to the pan. In batches, add the kale. Cook until the kale is wilted and tender, 6 min. Season with chili flakes, salt (in moderation), and pepper.
