In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Pour in the heavy cream, stirring well to combine, and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Gradually stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and incorporated.
Add the cooked chicken to the sauce, mixing to coat it well.
Combine the cooked bowtie pasta with the sauce, adding reserved pasta water if needed to reach desired consistency.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
