Adjust rack to middle position and 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 6-by-6-inch piece of aluminum foil. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Cinch foil to make a closed pouch.
Line a baking sheet with foil; lightly oil. Arrange tomatoes on prepared sheet skin sides down. Drizzle with olive oil; season with salt, pepper, and 1 tsp Tuscan Heat Spice (you’ll use more later). Place foil pouch with garlic next to tomatoes. Roast on middle rack until tomatoes have wilted slightly and garlic is soft, 20-25 minutes.
While veggies roast, once water is boiling, add spaghetti to pot. Cook until al dente, 9-11 minutes. Reserve ¾ cup pasta cooking water, then drain.
Meanwhile, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with 1 tsp Tuscan Heat Spice, 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, 3-5 minutes per side. Turn off heat; cover to keep warm. (TIP: If your pan doesn’t have a lid, loosely tent chicken with aluminum foil.)
Once garlic is roasted, open foil and smash with a fork. Melt 1 TBSP butter in pot used to cook pasta over medium heat. Add remaining Tuscan Heat Spice and smashed garlic. Stir in cream cheese, 2 TBSP butter, ⅔ cup reserved pasta cooking water, and half the Parmesan. Turn off heat; season with salt and pepper.
Add spaghetti to pot with sauce; toss to thoroughly coat. (TIP: If sauce seems dry, add more reserved cooking water, a splash at a time, until creamy.) Season with salt and pepper. Slice chicken crosswise. Divide pasta between bowls. Top with chicken and roasted tomatoes. Sprinkle with remaining Parmesan.
