Cook pasta to al dente in salted boiling water according to package directions. Set aside.
While pasta is cooking, in a large skillet, saute garlic in oil, being careful not to burn it. Add chicken; saute until cooked through, about 10 minutes.
Remove chicken; cover with aluminum foil to keep warm.
Add broccoli florets and a little more oil to the pan, if necessary. Stir; toss broccoli until crisply tender.
Return chicken to the pan; add tomatoes, basil, red pepper flakes, wine and chicken stock. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add butter; cover and simmer over low heat, 5 - 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
Add the cooked bow tie pasta to the pan. Add a little more white wine or chicken stock if the pasta isn't saucy enough. Cook until heated through.
Stir to blend. Serve with shredded or grated Parmesan.
