Wash and dry all produce. Set @chopped chicken breast{20%oz} aside.
Bring @pearl couscous{1.5%cup}, half the @chicken stock concentrate{6%unit}(divided), and @water{1%cup} (2 cups for 4 servings) to a boil in a #small pot{}. Once boiling, cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until tender, ~{8%minutes}. Keep covered off heat until ready to use in Step 3.
While couscous cooks, drain and rinse @cannellini beans{2%unit} in a #strainer{}. Peel and mince or grate @garlic{2%clove}. Remove and discard any thick center stems from @kale{8%oz}. Quarter @lemon{2%unit}.

Remove @sausage{} from casing if necessary; discard casing.
Heat a drizzle of @cooking oil{1%tsp} in a #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, ~{5%minutes}.
Add beans and garlic; cook, stirring, until fragrant, ~{30%seconds}.
Stir in kale, remaining stock concentrates, and @water{¼%cup} (½ cup for 4 servings). Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until kale is wilted, ~{2%minutes}. (For 4, add half the kale and stir until slightly wilted; add remaining kale and cook ~{4%minutes} more.)

Reduce heat under pan with sausage-kale mixture to low. Add cooked couscous, 1 TBSP @butter{2%tbsp} (2 TBSP for 4 servings), and a squeeze of lemon juice. Cook, stirring, until butter has melted.
Add another squeeze of lemon juice to taste. Season with @salt{1%tsp} and @black pepper{1%tsp} if desired.

Divide sausage and white beans between plates. Sprinkle with @Parmesan cheese{6%tbsp} and as many @chili flakes{2%tsp} as you like. Serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side.
