Set peppers cut side up on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush all over with olive oil. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until they begin to soften. When finished, drain the water out of each pepper and reduce oven temperature to 350°F.
Meanwhile, in a microwave safe bowl, steam kale with 2 Tablespoons of water on high for 1 minute, or until wilted.
