Heat the olive oil over moderate heat in a large skillet. Add the broccoli, red pepper strips, and garlic; cook 1 minute, stirring frequently. Discard the garlic when brown. Add the water and wine. Cover and cook over low heat until the broccoli is just tender but firm, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain; return to saucepan and toss with butter, broccoli mixture, cheese, pepper, and salt if desired.
