I believe the answer is:

booty

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'plunder' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'get a kick out of?' is the wordplay.
'get' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'a kick out' becomes 'boot' (I've seen this in another clue).
'of?' becomes 'y' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'boot' put next to 'y' is 'BOOTY'.

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for booty that I've seen before include "Valuable stolen goods" , "Loot" , "Spoils" , "Spoil - plunder" , "Money holder" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
