4. Brown chicken rolls in a lightly greased skillet over medium-high heat. Transfer to a greased baking dish and bake for 30 minutes.
5. While chicken bakes, sauté onions in butter until translucent. Add pine nuts and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from skillet.
6. Add kale to the skillet with 2 tablespoons of water. Cook until wilted, about 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
7. Serve chicken over sautéed kale, topped with onions and pine nuts.
