Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Wash and thoroughly dry the kale. Remove the tough stems and tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces.
Place the kale pieces into a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
Sprinkle the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper over the kale. Toss again to distribute the seasonings uniformly.
Spread the seasoned kale in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure the pieces are not overlapping to allow even roasting.
Roast in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, turning the kale halfway through, until the edges are crispy but not burnt.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the roasted kale while it's still warm.
Transfer to a serving platter and enjoy immediately as a warm side dish or snack.
