   In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook pasta until al dente. Drain and oil lightly.

   Add garlic, pepper flakes and rosemary and cook for about 2 minutes or until garlic is lightly browned. Add broth and olives. Reduce cooking liquid by half.

4. 4

   Add pasta, chicken, Parmesan, chives and butter. Mix thoroughly and cook over low heat until pasta had absorbed a little cooking liquid. Adjust seasoning.
