Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss halved baby potatoes with olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until golden.
Grill seasoned chicken breasts on medium-high heat for about 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked (165°F internal temperature). Let rest before slicing.
Cook penne pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve some pasta water before draining.
In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat, add garlic and sauté until fragrant. Stir in heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer, then mix in parsley and cheese until melted.
