Heat a large pan on medium heat for about 30 seconds. Add the oil and let heat up, about another minute.
Add the onions and garlic, let cook for 1 minute.
Add in the spices (turmeric, cumin, and cayenne), and let heat up until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the ginger, bell pepper, shitake mushrooms, and chickpeas. Stir occasionally and cook until the mushrooms start to get glossy and the peppers start to get soft, about 1-2 minutes.
Add in the kale and cover, for 1 minute. It will start to shrink and turn bright green. Stir the kale, until all of it is uniformly bright green, which should take less than a minute. Don’t overcook.
Remove from heat, add salt to taste, and serve.
