1
Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add chorizo and cook until lightly rendered (but not crisp) and oil turns bright red, about 3 minutes. Add onion and garlic and stir to coat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 8 minutes. Stir in kale; season with salt and pepper. Cook until kale begins to wilt, about 3 minutes. Add 1/2 cup wine and 1/4 cup water. Cover partially and reduce heat to low. Simmer gently until kale is tender, 15-20 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat remaining 2 Tbsp. oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Season fish with salt and pepper. Add fish to skillet and cook until golden brown, about 7 minutes. Turn fish, remove skillet from heat, and pour in remaining 1/2 cup wine. Return to heat and bring wine to a simmer; cook until fish is just opaque in center, about 4 minutes longer.
