Instructions
Adjust rack to middle position preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry all produce. Cut tomatoes into 6 wedges each. Place whole garlic cloves on a small piece of foil; drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Cinch into a packet.
Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly oil. Place tomatoes skin sides down on prepared sheet. Drizzle with olive oil; season with 1 tsp Tuscan Heat Spice (2 tsp for 4; you’ll use more later), salt, and pepper. Place garlic foil packet on same sheet. Roast on middle rack until tomatoes have wilted slightly and garlic is soft, 20-25 minutes.
Once water is boiling, add spaghetti to pot. Cook until al dente, 9-11 minutes. Reserve ¾ cup pasta cooking water (1½ cups for 4 servings), then drain.
While pasta cooks, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with 1 tsp Tuscan Heat Spice (2 tsp for 4 servings; you’ll use the rest in the next step), salt, and pepper. Heat a large drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, 5-7 minutes per side. Turn off heat; cover to keep warm. TIP: If your pan doesn’t have a lid, loosely cover with aluminum foil.
Once garlic is roasted, open foil and mash cloves with a fork. Melt 1 TBSP butter in pot used for spaghetti over medium heat. Add mashed garlic and remaining Tuscan Heat Spice; cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Stir in cream cheese, half the Parmesan (save the rest for serving), 2 TBSP butter (3 TBSP for 4 servings), and ⅔ cup reserved pasta cooking water (1 cup for 4); bring to a simmer, then turn off heat. Season with salt and pepper.
Add spaghetti to pot with sauce; toss to thoroughly combine. (TIP: If needed, stir in more reserved pasta cooking water a splash at a time until pasta is coated in a creamy sauce.) Season with salt and pepper. Slice chicken crosswise. Divide pasta between bowls. Top with chicken and roasted tomatoes. Sprinkle with remaining Parmesan and serve.
